Our Prediction
Durham Jets are favourites to win
Leicestershire Foxes won their previous game against Yorkshire by 54 runs. With one win and one loss, they are currently in fourth spot in the standings. Durham Jets, after losing their opening game, have bounced back strongly in the competition with back-to-back wins and are placed second on the points table. The two teams from the North Group will now lock horns in the ongoing Natwest T20 Blast 2016 on June 4 at the Grace Road in Leicester. Both teams will have played one more game on Friday before facing each other on Saturday. The match is scheduled to begin at 5:30 PM local time.

Leicestershire Team News & Playing 11
Scoring 60 runs in two games, Umar Akmal is their top run-getter at the moment. He made a half-century in the first match against Northamptonshire and is a good option for a bet. Ben Raine looked good with 48 in the match against Yorkshire. Kevin O'Brien is a dangerous batsman in T20 format and the Irish should be backed to top-score against Durham.
Raine picked up two wickets in the first game and three in the second and is ranking amongst the top ten bowlers of the tournament. He was also a miser with the ball against Yorkshire and is worth wagering on for Saturday's fixture. O'Brien took three wickets and was also economical, earning him high betting odds for the forthcoming contest.
Durham Team News & Playing 11
Phil Mustard top-scored for his side in the first two games. The opener has scored 120 runs so far in the tournament and he should be the best top-batsman bet. Graham Clark made 32 and 36 in the first two matches and is batting well at No. 3. Their middle-order is looking good with Richardson and Pringle also making decent contributions.
After being hit for plenty in the first match, Barry McCarthy sprung into form to take 3 wickets in each of the following two games. The seamer is currently the second-highest wicket-taker of the season and is a definite top-bowler bet. Usman Arshad and Paul Coughlin have taken six wickets so far in this Natwest T20 Blast and the two pacers are expected to pick up wickets against Leicestershire.
Our Prediction
Leicestershire Foxes will have the advantage of playing Durham Jets on their home ground. But they don't have happy memories on this ground this year as they had lost their first match here against Northamptonshire. Durham have big wins over Lancashire and Nottinghamshire and will be the more confident side ahead of this match. Both teams have plenty of talented players in their side and it should be an intense match on Saturday.
It is true that Leicestershire Foxes have won both their prior games (one each in the 2014 and 2015 editions) against Durham Jets at this venue. But taking into account the current team composition and recent performances, we feel that the latter should be backed to win this match.
