Alex Hales and Samit Patel have had good outings with scores of 47 and 55 respectively. Hales is an attacking batsman and the onus will be on him to take Nottinghamshire off to a blazing start. Harry Gurney has already made his mark this season with four wickets from two matches. The left-arm fast bowler picked up three wickets in the first match against Yorkshire and the team will back him for a good performance against Northamptonshire.

Northamptonshire Team News & Playing 11
The team's batting will rely largely on Ben Duckett and Josh Cobb who seem to be in a good nick this season. Opening batsman Duckett has hit two fifties in three matches at an average of 51.33 and he will be the key figure in Northamptonshire's batting lineup. Tabraiz Shamsi and Rory Kleinveldt have both taken four wickets apiece so far and the team will have high hopes pinned on these two South Africans to do the job with the ball.

Nottinghamshire vs Northamptonshire Prediction
Nottinghamshire have won 75% of the matches they have played against Northamptonshire in the English domestic T20 competitions. Out of the 8 matches, the former have won five of them while the latter have won just one with the remaining two having ended in tie. In addition to an impressive record against their opposition, Nottinghamshire will have the benefit of playing on their home ground where they have been very hard to beat in recent times. Last season, they won five out of the six matches they played at the Trent Bridge. Although both teams appear equally strong on paper, we predict the hosts Nottinghamshire to win this match.
Final Verdict: Back Nottinghamshire Outlaws to beat Northamptonshire Steelbacks in this North Group fixture of the NatWest T20 Blast 2017.
