Winner Odds Hampshire Hawks – 1.57 (bet ₹100 and win ₹157 if Hampshire Hawks win) BET NOW Glamorgan – 2.39 (bet ₹100 and win ₹239 if Glamorgan wins) BET NOW
Hampshire Hawks |Hampshire won 2 matches played on the same day at The Rose Bowl. James Vince is in great form as he scored fifty against Essex and later a hundred against Sussex while chasing 184 runs. Hampshire Hawks will carry the momentum going into this match. The key players to watch out for in the middle-order are Joe Weatherley and Colin de Grandhomme. In the bowling department, Mason Crane, Liam Dawson, and Chris Wood look in decent touch and will be the impact bowlers for Hampshire Hawks. Glamorgan |Glamorgan’s batting woes continue as they lost their last home game while chasing a target of 182 runs. Daniel Douthwaite was the top scorer with 25 runs at number 7 as Glamorgan were bowled out for 107 runs. Though Tim van der Gugten was back in the side, he wasn’t very effective with the ball. Roman Walker is a key bowler to watch out for in this setup along with Daniel Douthwaite. Colin Ingram and Marnus Labuschagne at number 3 and 4 will be expected to rise to the occasion and lead Glamorgan to a decent total.
Hampshire Hawks are favourites to win this match Hampshire have the momentum on their side with their star batsman in great touch. The middle-order is also well equipped to build partnerships and keep the run rate high. Glamorgan, on the other hand, are struggling to score runs and will be under pressure going up against an in-form Hampshire Hawks.
Winner Odds Leicestershire Foxes – 2.46 (bet ₹100 and win ₹246 if Leicestershire Foxes win) BET NOW Worcestershire Rapids – 1.54 (bet ₹100 and win ₹154 if Worcestershire Rapids win) BET NOW
Leicestershire Foxes |Of the 6 matches played at this venue, Leicestershire Foxes have won only 2. Their 2nd home win came in the last game chasing a target of 174 runs against Notts Outlaws. Josh Inglis gave a solid start with his 42 off 19 balls inning. He was well supported by another attacking top-order batsman Arron Lilley who scored a quickfire 42 off 23 balls at number 3. Going into this game, Foxes will need their middle-order batsmen to fire. Colin Ackerman, Harry Swindles, and Lewis Hill will all be crucial for Leicestershire in a run chase. Naveen-ul-Haq and Ackerman are the main impact bowlers in this setup and will play a crucial role to give Foxes the upper hand. Worcestershire Rapids |The bowlers got Worcestershire on top of the game in their last encounter against Birmingham Bears. However, the Bears’ lower-order stepped up and led the comeback finishing with a total of 169. Though Daryl Mitchell was promoted to number 4, he failed to make a mark. Other key middle-order batsmen include Jake Libby and Ben Cox. In the lower order, Ross Whiteley and Ed Barnard are also handy with the bat. The major winning factor in this Worcestershire side is the bowling attack. The likes of Ben Dwarshuis, Ish Sodhi, and Brett DOliveira can put Foxes on the back foot.
Worcestershire Rapids are favourites to win this match While Leicestershire are playing at their home venue, their record here hasn’t been a good one. Though Rapids are coming off of a loss in their last game, they’ve got a well-balanced squad and will have an edge going into this away game.
Winner Odds Notts Outlaws – 1.45 (bet ₹100 and win ₹145 if Notts Outlaws win) BET NOW Durham – 2.75 (bet ₹100 and win ₹275 if Durham wins) BET NOW
Notts Outlaws |Nottinghamshire lost their second game of the season after they failed to defend 173 runs against Leicestershire. Nevertheless, they will still start as favourites on betting sites to win their last league stage game. The batting lineup features Joe Clarke, Alex Hales, and Ben Duckett in the top 3 and Samit Patel and Mullaney in the middle-order. Most of these players have been in great form and delivered on multiple occasions to lead the Outlaws to victory. While there have been a few changes in the bowling attack, the key players have delivered for Nottinghamshire. Steven Mullaney, Calvin Harrison, and Samit Patel will be the ones to watch out for in the Nottinghamshire bowling attack. Durham |The batting performances from Durham haven’t been particularly poor but not good enough to secure a win. In their last outing, Durham lost by 6 runs chasing a target of 200 runs against Lancashire. Previously, they posted a total of 176 batting first against Derbyshire and lost by 6 wickets. David Bedingham, Graham Clarke, Cameron Bancroft, and Sean Dickinson form a strong top-order. There is no lack of options in the batting department for Durham. They will pose a tough challenge to the Notts Outlaws in this last match of the season.
Notts Outlaws to win this match While Durham has delivered some good performances with the bat lately, they haven’t managed to register a win. Nottinghamshire, on the other hand, have a more promising overall side. This will be a close contest with both teams featuring attacking batters in the top and middle-order. The home team, Notts Outlaws will start with an edge and hence, the favourites in our T20 Blast prediction.
Winner Odds Somerset – 1.74 (bet ₹100 and win ₹174 if Somerset wins) BET NOW Gloucestershire – 2.09 (bet ₹100 and win ₹209 if Gloucestershire wins) BET NOW
Somerset |With 3 wins in 4 matches, Somerset will be coming into this match with the winning momentum on their side. After being bowled for just 100 runs against Hampshire, an unbeaten 70 runs knock from Devon Conway led Somerset to 181 runs batting first against Glamorgan. The bowling attack is strong with Jack Leach, Craig Overton, and Marchant de Lange. However, in the last game, it was Roelof van der Merwe and Lewis Goldsworthy who bagged 3 wickets each to hand Glamorgan a 74-runs loss. In the middle order, Will Smeed and J Hildreth will need to step up and deliver while the lower middle-order seems to be in good touch and can finish the innings on a high. Gloucestershire |The batting performances haven’t been consistent throughout the Gloucestershire lineup. Nevertheless, the depth in the batting order and the strength in the middle-order with Glenn Phillips at number 4 should give the team a lot of confidence. Watch out for Benny Howell and Ian Cockbain in the top order while Jack Taylor and Ryan Higgins in the lower order are key to a good finish for Gloucestershire. Though they’ve got quality bowlers like Worrall, Benny Howell, and David Payne, Gloucestershire will need a big total to win against Somerset. The last these two teams met, Somerset had chased down 165 runs quite comfortably.
Somerset to win this match With Devon Conway in great touch and the bowlers also delivering consistently, Somerset have the upper hand Gloucestershire and will start as favourites to win.
Winner Odds Essex Eagles – 1.58 (bet ₹100 and win ₹158 if Essex Eagles win) BET NOW Middlesex – 2.37 (bet ₹100 and win ₹237 if Middlesex wins) BET NOW
Essex Eagles |Essex Eagles have won 2 of the 5 matches they played at this venue in Chelmsford. Both these wins came in their last couple of games at the County Ground. Since the last win at this venue, Essex have lost two back to back matches. Daniel Lawrence seems to be the only consistent batsman in this lineup. Tom Westley is another promising top-order batsman in the Essex batting order. There are some other promising names in the middle order such as James Neesham, Michael-Kyle Pepper, and Ryan ten Doeschate. However, not all of them have delivered consistently and hence cannot be relied upon. It is mostly the top 3 batsmen who have carried Essex Eagles innings in recent games. Middlesex |Middlesex will be coming into this game after 3 consecutive losses in their last matches. Like Essex, they too have bating woes which have only gotten worse in recent times. Chasing a 158 runs target in the last match against Kent, Middlesex were bowled out for 80 runs. In the middle-order, Joe Cracknel, Daryl Mitchell, and Max Holden haven’t managed to get things right and their consistent failure has made things worse for Middlesex. Nathan Sowter, Mujeeb Ur Rahman, and Tom Helm are the impact players in the bowling department.
Essex Eagles to win this match While both teams are struggling in the batting department, Essex have a few players to rely upon like Tom Westley and Daniel Lawrence. The bowling is where Middlesex has the edge. Nevertheless, without a strong batting lineup, defeating Essex will be an uphill battle.
Winner Odds Birmingham Bears – 1.64 (bet ₹100 and win ₹164 if Birmingham Bears win) BET NOW Northants Steelbacks – 2.26 (bet ₹100 and win ₹226 if Northants Steelbacks win) BET NOW
Birmingham Bears |Birmingham Bears bounced back after their loss to Worcestershire Rapids at an away venue. Sam Hain at number 4 and Carlos Brathwaite at number 7 played a brilliant unbeaten knock to lead Bears to a 169 runs total batting first at their home ground. Danny Briggs and Craig Miles led the bowling attack to secure a 17-run win over the Rapids. Birmingham has a strong squad that features Will Rhodes, Sam Hain, Matthew Lamb, Tim Bresnan and Chris Woakes. Bears will start with more confidence to finish with a win in this last league stage match at their home venue. Northants Steelbacks |The key players in this lineup to watch out for are Richard Levi, Adam Rossington, all-rounders Rob Keogh, Mohammad Nabi, and Wayne Parnell. Opener and wicket-keeper batsman Ricardo Vasconcelos has been among the top contributors for Northamptonshire in recent matches. In the bowling department, Steelbacks have a good variety of options to choose from including skipper Joshua Cobb himself. Watch out for Saif Zaib, Graeme White and Mohammad Nabi to make an impact with the ball. The all-rounders add depth in the batting order giving Northants Steelbacks a great chance of finishing with a competitive total.
Birmingham Bears to win this match While the betting sites have priced the home team at 1.64 odds, this contest will be much closely fought than what’s indicated. Northamptonshire Steelbacks have an overall strong squad with many all-rounders and can deliver a setback to the Birmingham Bears.
Winner Odds Kent Spitfires – 2.43 (bet ₹100 and win ₹243 if Kent Spitfires win) BET NOW Sussex Sharks – 1.55 (bet ₹100 and win ₹155 if Sussex Sharks win) BET NOW
Kent Spitfires |Kent have won their last 3 consecutive matches and will be confident going into this last game. Joe Denly, Daniel Bell-Drummond, Oliver Robinson, and Zak Crawley are the key impact players in the top order for Kent. Other wicket-keeper batsmen in this squad include Sam Billings and Jordan Cox. While Elliot Hooper, Safyaan Sharif, and Harry Podmore are all less experienced bowlers, they’ve delivered a great performance in the last match. Spitfires bowled out Middlesex for just 80 runs, and all of these bowlers made significant contributions. In the last game, Kent lineup featured Munsey, Crawley, and Heino Kuhn in the top 3 followed by MacLeod in the middle order. Sussex Sharks |Following their back to back wins at Cardiff and Hove, Sussex lost a match at Southampton against Hampshire Hawks. They should be taking positives from that game as well since all the key players looked in great touch. Philip Salt, Luke Wright, and Bopara form a strong top 3. Whereas, Rawlins, Wiese, and Rashid Khan add more depth in the batting order. The skipper used up to 8 bowling options in the last game. In addition to Rashid Khan and Ollie Robinson, other impact bowlers in the Sussex setup are Delray Rawlins, Will Beer, and David Wiese. It will not be an easy outing for Sussex Sharks given the current form and bench strength of Kent Spitfires. Nevertheless, the Sharks seem to be well equipped to take on the Spitfires in this last match of the season.
Sussex Sharks to win this match Both teams are well-matched with a strong batting lineup and a good variety in the bowling attack. However, Kent has been making some changes recently and which ones will deliver is not certain. Sussex Sharks, on the other hand, will be coming in with their best XI and hence start with an upper hand in the game.
