So far, Steven Mullaney has announced the same XI in both of the fixtures for Nottinghamshire in the 2023 T20 Blast. Although they lost by 22 runs on Saturday, they were against a very strong team in Lancashire Lightning and, with no injuries reported, we expect an unchanged team for this game.

🏆 Durham vs Nottinghamshire Prediction
After a sunny and warm few days in the UK, this game will be played in cooler conditions but we still expect to see an entertaining fixture. Runs from the top order have been part of Durham’s success so far but we think they could have problems against Shaheen Shah Afridi in this match. Our prediction is for Nottinghamshire to produce their best performance of the season with bat and ball and to go on and win the game.
