County Ground in Northampton

Northamptonshire and Durham are set to face off in the Vitality Blast on July 7, 2024, for the first time this season. Their clash is going to be hosted at County Ground, Northampton, with the match scheduled to begin at 7:00 P.M IST.

Northamptonshire vs Durham Chances of Winning

Northamptonshire’s aspirations of climbing up the ladder were thwarted by an equally competitive Leicestershire in their last completed match. Northamptonshire’s batters did well to put the team in a good position early on as skipper David Willey took charge and scored 71 runs. Opener Matthew Breetzke did his bit by scoring 47 runs while Sikandar Raza’s unbeaten 36 added fuel to the fire for Leicestershire. However, Leicestershire managed to catch up to Northamptonshire but the latter held their nerve and wedged a tie instead of giving in and letting victory slip.

Durham are inching their way closer to the top of the table and their endeavor against Worcestershire certainly helped their cause. They batted first on home turf and made full use of the surface to rack in 190 runs. Although wicket-keeper batter Ollie Robinson stood out with an individual total of 41, all the batters put in the hard work to get to a formidable score. Worcestershire’s chase was not very fruitful as they scored 168 runs but were bundled out with one ball left in the innings. They suffered a 22-run defeat.

Northamptonshire vs Durham Betting Tips

Durham to score high before first dismissal

Graham Clark and Alex Lees have pulled their act together in order to put Durham’s opening wicket in a reliable position. Their improvement from the start of the season is quite evident in the previous few games that they took part in. They added 43, 18 and 81 runs to the first wicket in the last three games and, prior to that, they hammered out a partnership of 58 runs against Nottinghamshire before the rain disrupted the match. They are in top shape at the moment and it seems to become increasingly difficult to break up their partnership.

Northamptonshire vs Durham Toss Prediction

A total of four matches have been carried out to completion at County Ground in Northampton out of which the toss winners opted to bat first on three occasions. It worked out favorable twice while the chasing side clinched victory once and a tie was forced in the last match between Northamptonshire and Leicestershire. Batting first is still the preferred strategy at this surface and both teams will be keen to do so in the next match.

Weather Report

The forecast suggests a 60% possibility of rainfall at Northampton with an accompanying temperature of 17 degrees Celsius. Thundershowers are a very real threat on match day.

Northamptonshire vs Durham Betting Odds

Durham to have a better opening partnership than Northamptonshire

Ricardo Vasconcelos and Matthew Breetzke have opened the innings for Northamptonshire on most occasions and they have forged decent partnerships together. In the last three matches, Northamptonshire have established first wicket partnerships of 42, 13 and 34 runs which is not particularly bad but does not hold up well against Durham. Graham Clark and Alex Lees have done justice to Durham as the opening order with totals of 43, 18 and 81 runs in the previous three matches. It is clear that Durham have the advantage here and are on course for a big opening total.

Northamptonshire vs Durham Best Batters

Matthew Breetzke to be Northamptonshire’s Best Batter

Matthew Breetzke fell short of what would have been his fourth half-century of the season as he was dismissed for 47 against Leicestershire in the last completed match. He also leads the charge for Northamptonshire with 299 runs in eight innings. He is expected to be their standout batter against Durham.

Graham Clark to be Durham’s Best Batter

Graham Clark is Durham’s top batter with 282 runs in nine innings so far. He had a slightly underwhelming outing against Worcestershire by his usual standard, seeing as he was dismissed for 24 runs. Nonetheless, he is anticipated to come good in the upcoming match.

Northamptonshire vs Durham Best Bowlers

Raphael Weatherall to be Northamptonshire’s Best Bowler

Raphael Weatherall is the joint highest wicket-taker for Northamptonshire with nine wickets in seven innings and a bowling average of 21.22. He was the top bowler against Leicestershire as he picked four wickets in four overs. His spell was rather expensive since he had an economy rate of 12.50 but he has the ability to offset that by bagging wickets.

Ben Raine to be Durham’s Best Bowler

Ben Raine is Durham’s most valuable bowler at the moment, having claimed 15 wickets in eight innings. He brought back a three-wicket haul against Worcestershire during his four-over spell and he also maintained an impressive economy rate of 7.50. His performance makes him the favorite for the next match, too.

Our Prediction

Favorites to win

Durham

Northamptonshire stagnated in fifth after a tie against Worcestershire and an abandoned match against Lancashire leading up to this match. They have four wins and three defeats so far but are somehow lugging a net run rate of -0.433 which needs serious attention. Durham are in third place with five wins and three losses but their net run rate of -0.560 does not do them any favors either. However, Durham are a clear favorite in the next match, especially since they are on a three-match winning streak.
