Lancashire will be aiming to bounce back from a narrow defeat to Leicestershire when they host table-toppers Northamptonshire in a key North Group clash. Lancashire’s batting faltered last game, managing only 145/7 despite a fighting 55 from Luke Wells. The middle-order, including Jennings, Turner, and Bohannon, struggled to accelerate, and they’ll need a more aggressive approach against an in-form Northants bowling unit. On the bowling front, Chris Green continued to impress with 2/30, while veteran James Anderson showed his class early on.
Northamptonshire, meanwhile, come into this match with a perfect 4-0 record. In their last outing against Worcestershire, they piled up 190/5 with strong contributions from Vasconcelos (59) and Willey (36 off 23), while Bopara and Zaib added crucial finishing touches. Their bowling unit was clinical, especially Ben Sanderson who picked up a five-for, dismantling Worcestershire for 159. Saif Zaib also impressed as an all-rounder.
Northants' balance, with power hitters and a varied attack, makes them a real threat. Lancashire have the home advantage and more bowling depth, but they’ll need their top-order to fire to match Northamptonshire’s firepower. A lot may hinge on how they counter the in-form Sanderson and Zaib duo.
