NOR vs DUR Dream11 Team News:
Northamptonshire: While they may be at the bottom of the pile, they’ve only played five games so far and with games coming thick and fast. It’ll be an excellent oppurtunity for them to get a few wins under their belt.
The Return to form of their Skipper Josh Cobb (84 from 50 balls) is a significant plus coming out of their defeat against the Falcons. The Steelbacks managed to get 180 runs on the board which is by-far their highest score of the tournament.
The Bowling department has seemed shaky at times. Over-reliance on foreign stars like Dwaine Pretorius and Faheem Ashraf has been evident at times. Meanwhile, the two are also due to hit match-winning form so far.
NOR playing 11: Ben Curran, Adam Rossington (wk), Joshua Cobb (c), Rob Keogh, Alex Wakely, Dwaine Pretorius, Matt Coles, Faheem Ashraf, Graeme White, Nathan Buck, Ben Sanderson.
Durham: The Jets are coming back off a heavy defeat against at the hands of Lancashire Lightning and will look to get back on winning ways.
They have managed six points out of six games thus far and will fancy their chances against the Steelbacks who they’ve already beaten once this season.
Aussie star D’Arcy Short has been the star of the show for them so far, and his fortunes have resonated with that of the team.
The likes of Peter Handscomb need to step-up in the middle order and share the burden of run-making with Short.
The Bowlers except for Matty Potts kept a tight line against Lancashire and had it not been for Liam Livingstone’s special innings; they might have ended on the right side of the result.
None of their bowlers except for Potts (11) had an economy above 8.
DUR Playing 11: D’Arcy Short, Scott Steel, Graham Clark, Ben Raine, Peter Handscomb, Alex Lees, Stuart Poynter (c & wk), Liam Trevaskis, Matthew Potts, Brydon Carse, Nathan Rimmington.

NOR vs DUR Dream11 Fantasy Picks:
D’Arcy Short: Without a shadow of a doubt this southpaw should be your first pick in the fantasy 11. He has scored 245 runs so far in the tournament and bagged nine wickets in just six games. If there is a player who can turn this game on its head, it’s him.
50 for D’Arcy Short

Scott Steel: Steel made an ideal start to life in this edition of the tournament with back to back fifties. However, he hasn’t been able to hit the same heights since. He goes into the game as the highest-rated batsman, and this could be the game where he returns to form.
Joshua Cobb: The Steelbacks skipper had an impressive outing the previous time around scoring 84 runs of only 50 balls with the help of seven massive sixes. He also comes in handy with the ball and is one of the ‘must have’s’ in your dream 11 fantasy team for the game.
