In what will be a very crucial game for the two teams, Durham will face Lancashire in a battle for second place in the English One-Day cup North Group match on Tuesday, April 30 at Roseworth Terrace in Gosforth. Durham who are currently second are two points ahead of their opponents who after a slow start has put together a few well-fought victories to find themselves in this position. If it remains like this, both teams will face each other in the quarterfinal from North Group, but we’re sure that would be the last thing on these two teams’ mind right now. For now, the focus will be on getting a victory and in turn bolstering their chances of catching up with the top team, Nottinghamshire. Let’s take a look at the probable playing 11 for the Durham vs Lancashire ODI match. We will also be listing out top five Fantasy Cricket picks for your DUR vs LAN Dream11 team:
Lancashire will be boosted by the arrival of English International Jos Buttler who has returned from his impressive stint in the Vivo Indian Premier League 2019 and will now focus on getting his form on for the ICC Cricket World Cup which begins end of next month. Although his inclusion in the team is still a little doubtful. Durham on the other hand have relied on some livewires in their team who have time and again proved their worth in the competition. Let’s take a look at the two teams and our top five Fantasy Cricket picks for your DUR vs LAN Dream11 team:
Durham playing 11: Michael Richardson, Alex Lees, Ben Raine, Cameron Bancroft (c & wk), Graham Clark, Matt Salisbury, Jack Burnham, James Weighell, Brydon Carse, Liam Trevaskis, Scott Steel
Lancashire playing 11: James Anderson, Steven Croft, Glenn Maxwell, Dane Vilas (c & wk), Keaton Jennings, Rob Jones, Haseeb Hameed, Saqib Mahmood, Matthew Parkinson, Liam Hurt, Josh Bohannon
With a knock of 92 already in the tournament, Steven Croft was instrumental in Lancashire’s first ever victory against Yorkshire since 2008. Since then, he has put together a few good performances and have made himself a key man in the Lancashire squad. A player who can also bowl, Croft is a smart pick for your DUR vs LAN Dream11 team.
Dream11 Points – 175
The skipper has led by example and has been impressive for Durham this season. He is always regular with the runs and at time looks set for a big one. His proficiency with the gloves also makes him a smart pick for your Durham vs Lancashire Dream11 team.
Dream11 Points – 238
How good has Mahmood been for Lancashire, the English national pacer has hit the ground running and with a five-wicket haul against Leicestershire in the last game, Mahmood was a really handful for the opposition. He is an impact player and is a good pick for your Dream11 team.
Dream11 Points – 245
While his only disadvantage will be that he comes to bat a little later than what you would have wanted, he is still a good option to have in your Dream11 team. He is currently the pick among all batsmen between these two sides and even comes to this game in good form after scoring 72 in the last match against Derbyshire.
Dream11 Points – 131
The all-rounder has spent some time in this league as preparations for the ICC Cricket World Cup and has done good for himself in this Lancashire team. Maxwell is a player who often gets the ground running and is a smart pick for your DUR vs LAN Dream11 team mainly because of his experience and the ability to change the game so quickly.
