Northamptonshire Steelbacks vs Notts Outlaws Team Preview
Northamptonshire Steelbacks
Northamptonshire Steelbacks lost their third straight T20 Blast match on Friday as they were defeated by Lancashire Lightning by a score of 35 runs. With three victories in their previous nine games, the Steelbacks enter this match in eighth place in the North Group.
Chris Lynn, an Australian, scored 21 runs at 21 balls in the previous match but has yet to reach the customary T20 career peaks in this year’s competition. The middle order and lower order batting for the Steelbacks are firm, with players like Om Taylor and Andrew Tye both capable of scoring big runs.
Notts Outlaws
The Outlaws defeated Derbyshire Falcons by three wickets with eight balls left in their most recent game, and they are one of three teams with 12 points at the top of the North Group. Over Lancashire Lightning, who are currently in fourth position in the standings, they hold a two-point lead.
This season, the Notts Outlaws’ whole top order has been on fire. Along with Alex Hales, who is still the best bowler in English cricket, Joe Clarke is emerging as one of the most reliable T20 openers. Colin Munro, who bats third, is a strong and skilled batter.
