Worcestershire will lock horns with Lancashire in the 88th match of the Vitality Blast 2023 at the County Ground in Worcester on June 20. Worcestershire have won five of their nine matches and are in the fifth position in the North Group. Lancashire, on the other hand, have won six matches and are second in the rankings of the North Group. 

Worcestershire had squared off against Leicestershire in their last match, where Worcestershire won the toss and elected to field. Leicestershire lost a wicket early, but a watchful second-wicket partnership helped them not lose the track. However, once the partnership broke, it felt like the dam of wickets was broken as batters came and went in a flash. After being at 66 for one, they were bowled out at 112. Worcestershire showed no signs of hurry and went ahead at their own pace. Their captain, Brett D’Oliveira, led the attack with his half-century, and Worcestershire won the match easily by six wickets.

Lancashire had squared off against Durham in their last match, where Durham won the toss and elected to field. Lancashire had a horrible start losing two wickets in the very first over. However, they had some of the most brilliant partnerships in the middle overs, which proved counterattacking and led them to post a huge total of 195 runs on the board. The match was disturbed by the rain, and it was reduced to 17 overs a side, and the revised target was 158 runs. Durham joined 125 runs for their first wicket, and it looked like they would win the match easily, but some amazing bowling towards the end helped Lancashire restrict Durham to 150 runs, and Lancashire won the match by seven runs as per DLS Method.

Pitch Report

The track at the County Ground in Worcester is more favorable to batters than it is to bowlers. Batters can trust the bounce of the pitch and play their shots freely. Bowlers will need to depend on bowling tight line and length to scalp wickets and keep the batters in check. Chasing the total would be a preferred option here, with the average first innings score being 169.
