Durham Cricket vs Notts Outlaws Team Preview

Durham Cricket

Durham had a difficult T20 Blast season last year, but they are off to a pretty strong start this time around. They will be excited about the possibility of defeating Nottinghamshire, a formidable opponent.

Unsurprisingly, given their opening-game victory over the Northamptonshire Steelbacks. For Sunday’s match at Headingley against Yorkshire Vikings, Durham used the same starting lineup. We anticipate that the same club will play in this game after two straight victories.

Notts Outlaws

Notts Outlaws has a very good team with true T20 players, but they have yet to truly get going this season. They will see this match as the ideal chance to restart their Blast campaign.

As of now, Steven Mullaney has named the identical starting lineup for Notts Outlaws in both of the 2023 T20 Blast matches. Although they suffered a 22-run defeat on Saturday, Lancashire Lightning was a very formidable opponent, and as there have been no reports of injuries, we anticipate the same lineup for this game.
