T20 Blast 2022 | DUR vs LAN | Preview, Prediction, Probable XI, CREX XI

Durham will face the challenge of Lancashire in Match 66 of T20 Blast 2022 on June 10 (Friday) at Riverside Ground, Chester-le-Street.

Durham have been average with their performances to secure only two wins in seven appearances. In their last outing, Ben Raine scored an unbeaten 51 and picked two wickets, but others could not prove to be proficient as the team could score only 141, and the opposition chased down the score easily. 

The team’s vital players like Sean Dickson, Ashton Turner, and Mark Wood are not yet available for the selection due to injury concerns. The next couple of matches will indeed decide their fate of sealing places in the quarter-finals. The likes of Graham Clark and Paul Coughlin have been best performers. 

On the other hand, Lancashire are coming into this game after winning a thriller by four runs. First, they scored 213 on the back of Tim David’s whirlwind knock of 66 off 33 balls. Then Richard Gleeson, Tom Hartley, and Danny Lamb picked up two wickets each. 

They are also expected to play with an unchanged Playing XI in this game. With six wins in seven league matches, Lancs need another win to confirm their berths for the quarter-finals. The team’s power-packed batting lineup and fine performances from bowlers have been the key to their victories.
