MID vs SOM Team Previews
Middlesex
Middlesex may feel that they are starting to rebuild their season after a four-wicket victory against Kent on Sunday. Having gone three losses in row to start their 2024 T20 Blast season, they will be hoping that their latest win ignites a change in fortunes.
Stephen Eskinazi will want to make a big impact with bat in hand at the top of the order. The Middlesex captain has hit back-to-back scores of 40-plus. In the middle order, the left-handed Leus du Plooy will want to light up the tournament and give his team the impetus they need in the middle phase of their batting innings.
Leg-spinner Luke Hollman currently leads the Middlesex bowling line-up with eight wickets. The 23-year old will want to add to this tally. He will need support around him from fast bowlers Blake Cullen and Tom Helm. Both pacers will want to improve their economy rates of 11.90 and 9.27, respectively. They may be given the bowling conditions to do just that.
Middlesex Playing 11
Jack Davies, Max Holden, Stephen Eskinazi, Joe Cracknell, Luke Hollman, Ryan Higgins, Martin Andersson, Joshua De Caires, Blake Cullen, Tom Helm, Noah Cornwell.
Somerset
Somerset come into the game with serious form behind them after a 63-run drubbing of Hampshire. The defending champions look like they are hitting form just at the perfect time to get their title defence back on track.
The team is lined with big hitters throughout their batting order. This was on full display against Hampshire when Tom Abell and Sean Dickson put on a 144-run stand in 11.2 overs after early pressure. Tom Kohler-Cadmore will be looking to repeat his outstanding batting display of 64 off 31 not out, which he produced in the same fixture last year.
Ben Green was the star of the show in the 2023 fixture with four wickets for 20 runs and comes into this fixture fresh off a five-wicket haul against Hampshire. The right-arm seamer also leads the wicket-taking tally with 11 wickets. He will want support from his fellow seamers Riley Meredith and Lewis Gregory to cause damage to a Middlesex batting line-up which has surpassed the 170-run mark on three occasions this Blast season.
Somerset Playing 11
Tom Banton, Thomas Abell, Tom Kohler Cadmore, Will Smeed, Sean Dickson, Lewis Gregory, Ben Green, Roelof Van Der Merwe, Craig Overton, Riley Meredith, Josh Davey.

Pitch and Conditions
In the 2023 edition of the T20 Blast at Lord's, teams passed the 200-run mark twice with another innings ending on 199. If either team wants to win batting first at this ground, they will need to score of over 200 to do so.

MID vs SOM Betting Tips
The last time Middlesex won a home game at Lord's was as far back as 19 June 2022. They will want to change around their home fortunes. However, what is in front of them is a very dangerous Somerset outfit.
Bonus Cricket Bets
Bet on the home side to win the toss. There is a 50 percent chance this will happen. If Middlesex win the toss, they will probably choose to bowl first.
Kohler-Cadmore is a consistent performer in the United Kingdom and now has some Indian Premier League experience. Back him to do well here.
Green took a five-wicket haul against Hampshire recently. Conditions at Lord's should suit him. Green is in a good position to succeed again.
Eskinazi has put in several good starts lately and this could be his cue to convert to an innings of greater proportions. Anticipate a big knock from him.
Hollman is one of the best leg-spinners in the competition. He bowls with good pace and gets turn. If extra bounce is on offer, he could really benefit from this.
