Nottinghamshire vs Durham Chances of Winning
Nottinghamshire were among the tail enders last season and their performance throughout the season was rather underwhelming. They looked strong towards the end of the tournament as they took on Warwickshire in the final match, having scored 487 runs while batting first. Wicket-keeper batter Kyle Verreynne was the top scorer with an unbeaten 148-run century while Freddie McCann also made an incredibly valuable contribution with 130 runs. Miscellaneous scores from the rest of the players helped put the team in a solid position and Warwickshire managed 373 runs before the time was up, resulting in a deadlock.
Durham were a middling team in their campaign in the previous season and they were quite competitive in the last game versus Kent. Batting first, Durham posted 360 runs on the board with skipper and opener Alex Lees as the leading batter, having notched up 144 runs. David Bedingham and Emilio Gay were next in line with 66 and 52 runs, respectively. Kent made it quite close as they scored 353 in response but given that there was no play on the first two days, the teams had no choice but to draw.

Nottinghamshire vs Durham Betting Tips
Durham to score high before first dismissal
Durham’s openers had a tough time bringing some stability to the first wicket as Alex Lees and Ben McKinney had their ups and downs. In the last five games of the tournament, they secured partnerships of 80, 60, 0, 16, 25, 1 and 189 runs before the fall of the first wicket. They certainly need to work on their consistency coming into the present season but they have it in them to improve and post a big total.
Nottinghamshire vs Durham Toss Prediction
Four out of seven matches played at Trent Bridge last season were drawn and the teams fielding first won two matches, leaving the batting sides with one victory. The average first innings total of 370 is a defendable target and the teams preferred to bat first, having opted to do so four times. It will be the favored option in the next match as well.
Weather Report
The forecast suggests a mild 20% likelihood of rainfall with overcast skies and the temperature reaching 14 degrees Celsius.

Nottinghamshire vs Durham Betting Odds
Durham to have a better opening partnership than Nottinghamshire
Nottinghamshire’s Haseeb Hameed and Ben Slater certainly had the firepower to do well last season but their consistency turned out to be a concern. In the last three outings of the season, the pair added 15, 196, 28*, 19 and 31 runs to the first wicket before the first dismissal. Although Durham’s openers, Alex Lees and Ben McKinney, had a similar problem, the openers had slightly better consistency with scores of 80, 60, 0 and 16 runs in the last three matches of the 2024 season. The latter are expected to start the season on a strong note and outperform Nottinghamshire’s first wicket.

He had four centuries and four half-centuries under his belt, making him the top contender against Durham.

Farhan Ahmed to be Nottinghamshire’s Best Bowler
Farhan Ahmed emerged as the second leading wicket-taker for Nottinghamshire with 22 wickets in just six innings last season, including a fifer and a ten-wicket haul. In the last game against Warwickshire, he was the top bowler as he delivered 34 overs, four maidens, picked four wickets and achieved a splendid economy rate of 2.91. With an average of 23.22, he remains the top pick for the next match as well.
Callum Parkinson to be Durham’s Best Bowler
Callum Parkinson was among the top bowlers for Durham in the 2024 season as he captured a total of 30 wickets in 18 innings. He was relatively consistent but his average of 53.26 was far too high. Despite that, he is expected to turn things around and come good against Nottinghamshire.
