LAN vs DUR Match Prediction : T20 Blast 2025

Two of the North Group's top sides lock horns in Manchester as Lancashire host Durham in a clash that could shape the playoff race. Both teams currently sit on 28 points, but recent form tells contrasting stories.

Lancashire were outgunned by Yorkshire in a high-scoring derby at Old Trafford. Despite Jos Buttler’s 55 and Salt’s brisk 38, their bowling unit struggled to contain a Jonny Bairstow-led onslaught that saw Yorkshire pile up 236. Chris Green’s 3-wicket haul was a silver lining, but key pacers like Luke Wood and James Anderson were expensive and ineffective.

Durham, on the other hand, endured a rare off-day against Nottinghamshire, folding for just 156 despite Graham Clark's fluent 44. The usually dependable middle order faltered, and their bowling couldn’t defend the modest total, with Daniel Sams and Montgomery taking control. Still, Durham’s bowling attack has been consistent throughout the season, and they'll look to bounce back quickly.

This fixture brings together two sides capable of posting huge totals and producing clutch moments, but the hosts may have a slight edge with a deeper batting lineup and familiarity with the pitch at Old Trafford.

Bet on Lancashire to win.
