With four wins from four games, Worcestershire Rapids come into this match as the only team in the North Group with a 100% record still intact. They are top of the table, level on points with Birmingham Bears, but have played one game less so far.
Against a powerful Notts Outlaws bowling attack on Friday evening at Trent Bridge, Worcestershire Rapids produced an excellent team batting performance with four players making scores of 40+. Opener Michael Bracewell and Michael Hose both turned their scores into half-centuries.
Defending their total of 226-5, Worcestershire Rapids were exceptional with the ball and bowled out Notts Outlaws for 170 inside 18.2 overs. The wickets were shared around with Dillon Pennington and Michael Bracewell taking one each with Pat Brown and Brett D’Oliveira dismissing four batters each.
No team in the North or South Group is in as good form as Worcestershire Rapids at this stage of the season. They are looking for their fifth successive win in this game.

The Steelbacks have improved as this season has progressed and come into this match with two wins from their last three games. Derbyshire Falcons were beaten by 6 wickets with 12 balls remaining and Leicestershire Foxes were easily overcome by 8 wickets on Friday evening.
Chasing 165 for victory against Leicestershire Foxes, we finally saw the best of Chris Lynn for the first time this season as he dominated the bowlers and finished unbeaten on 110 from 68 balls. His innings included 13 fours and five sixes.
The same bowlers have been doing the damage for Northamptonshire Steelbacks in recent games and the experienced combination of David Willey and Andrew Tye have been consistent performers. Ben Sanderson caught the eye with 3-25 on Friday.
Northamptonshire Steelbacks are looking for their third victory in four games in this match. They won on Friday with 7 balls remaining.
Chris Lynn, Emilio Gay, Josh Cobb, David Willey (c), Saif Zaib, Lewis McManus (wk), Tom Taylor, Andrew Tye, Ben Sanderson, James Sales, Freddie Heldreich
Worcestershire Rapids have been far too strong for all their opponents so far in the tournament but Northamptonshire Steelbacks could cause them some problems in this match. The Steelbacks will need Chris Lynn to hit another big score but even then, the Rapids have always found a way to win this year. Overall we are backing Worcestershire Rapids to get the victory in this game.
