The last three games at the Riverside have seen the toss winning captain choose to bat first. We predict that both captains will want to field second in this match.

20 year old medium pace bowler Jonathan Bushnell made his T20 Blast debut in Friday’s defeat to Yorkshire Vikings. There was also a return to the team for skipper Ashton Turner with fellow countryman Andrew Tye missing out through injury.
Durham’s surprise win over Lancashire looks likely to have been a freak result. They have won only one of their last five games.

Keeper-batter Harry Swindells and top order batter Nick Welch came in for their first appearances of the competition ahead of the win over Worcestershire Rapids on Friday evening. They replaced Lewis Hill and Will Davis in the side and we expect them both to retain their spots ahead of this fixture.
Leicestershire Foxes needed that win over Worcestershire Rapids to end a disappointing run of three straight defeats.

Paul Coughlin, Ben Raine and Scott Borthwick are our bowling tips for Durham. Coughlin took 4-15 in the return fixture against Leicestershire Foxes earlier this season.
Naveen ul-Haq, Callum Parkinson and Rehan Ahmed are our bowling tips for Leicestershire Foxes. 17 year old Ahmed should enjoy the spin friendly conditions in Chester-le-Street.
