THE PREDICTION
Two multi format England internationals could be set to go head-to-head here, as Ben Stokes’ Durham faces Jos Butter’s Lancashire Lightning in the T20 Blast. This however, will be dependent on whether the Durham all-rounder is fit enough to play as he continues his recovery from a finger injury. Both these sides have made good starts to the competition and this is expected to be a close game. However, Lancashire Lightning do have a good record at Emirates Riverside and on traditionally longer boundaries, their slower bowlers should make the difference here and force an away win.
