Match 121 of the Vitality Blast 2023 will take place at the Old Trafford Stadium, Manchester, between the Lancashire and Northamptonshire on July 2, 2023. Despite the huge difference in the points table as Lancashire stands at the third place and Northamptonshire is positioned at the 7th spot, both have secured 7 wins and 6 wins, respectively. However Lancashire has the upper hand, considering their recent form.

Lancashire batted first in 4 out of 5 of their recent games, and they defeated the opponents convincingly by posting an average total of over 170 on three occasions and a score of above 160. Credit goes to Butler for his recent form, smashing a couple of half centuries and missing a well-deserving Hundred. They have lost an average of nearly 7 wickets per game, and their top-order batters have consistently performed well despite losing one or two early wickets. The area of concern is their average wicket-taking per game, which their opponent may view as an advantage going into this game. Lancashire will try to replicate their strategy by putting runs on the board to defend it through their bowlers.

Northamptonshire has performed almost equally to Lancashire in their recent games, securing three wins in their last five games. Their openers combined to score over 250 runs in their previous five encounters this season, which has been one of the reasons for their recent victories.  The Northamptonshire bowlers have consistently performed well in restricting the opposition to low scores in their chases, which has been their winning strategy this season. Northamptonshire is one step ahead in wicket-taking average, where they made the opponent lose all 10 Wickets in their recent three games.

Dane Vilas

LAN | WK

He is batting in the lower middle order and has scored one run in the last five games his team has played. He is not getting enough opportunities to bat as well. Therefore, it's safe to avoid him on your fantasy team.

Rob Jones

LAN | BAT

Considering his batting position and the nature of the pitch, it's safe to avoid him as they have solid top-order batting and he may not get the opportunity to bat to generate enough fantasy points for your team.
