Notts Outlaws are back to their home venue as they search for their first win of T20 Blast 2024. After losing to Northants Steelbacks at this venue, Outlaws did even worse at Trent Bridge in the next game.
From 154 all-out they went to 127 all-out. Worcestershire Rapids, on the other hand, have improved their batting performance greatly.
After they were bowled out for 101 in their season opener, the Rapids chased down a 170-run target in the very next game at New Road, Worcester.
Skipper Brett DOliviera led from the front as he scored a fifty opening for the Rapids. The hosts feature some of the best T20 batters in Alex Hales, Will Young, and skipper Joe Clarke, and yet are unable to post a competitive total.
It is a batting-friendly wicket here at Trent Bridge, and Joe Clarke should be pushing his batters to bounce back and deliver a match-winning performance.

Notts Outlaws will be keen to make the most of their home advantage as they take on Worcestershire Rapids. The last time they played here, they were bowled out for just 154 runs.
Joe Clarke, Alex Hales, and Jack Haynes will be the key players in the top 3 of this lineup. Each of these players has played a good hand recently but failed to make a bigger impact.
They got off to a good start but failed to convert it into something more significant that could affect the game. The Kiwi batter Will Young is a talented cricketer who’s performed well across formats at the international level.
His presence at number 4 is crucial and should add a lot of strength to this batting order. He’s failed to get off to a start in both his innings so far but should be able to turn things around in this match.
The lower-middle order also features many promising players who delivered some significant knocks in the previous seasons. Tom Moores, Matthew Montgomery, and Lyndon James will be expected to deliver a good finish at the death.
Ben Lister and Luke Fletcher will be leading this bowling attack. Right-arm fast bowler Olly Stone has also been quite successful in the domestic circuit and will be one to watch out for in this match.

Worcestershire Rapids are back in form and will be pushing for another win here. They bounced back with the bat soon after the batting failure in their opening game.
Skipper Brett DOliviera led the team to a 5-wicket win with his fifty at the top. And as they come to Trent Bridge he will be expecting bigger contributions from others in the lineup.
Matthew Waite looked in good touch with his 28 off 18 as he opened the innings alongside the captain. These two can get the Rapids off to another big start and that would set them up for a big total.
In the middle-order Rapids have got Adam Hose who’s another reliable and experienced batter. He scored a quickfire 23 off 9 balls at number 4 in the last match and looks very confident.
Nathan Smith and Tom Taylor will be leading the pace attack for the Rapids. Skipper DOliviera and Hayden Walsh are the key bowlers in the spin department.
Having two leg-break bowlers gives Rapids quite an advantage, especially if the pitch has some turn on offer.

It is a balanced pitch that tilts slightly more in favor of the batters. The surface is flat with a bit of green and the ball should come nicely onto the bat. Spinners can find some help from the surface as the game progresses. The weather will be partly cloudy with a high of 16 degrees Celsius in Nottingham on the match day.

Average TurnTrent Bridge in Nottingham will be the venue for this T20 Blast match as hosts take on Worcestershire Rapids in search of their first win of the season. It is a high-scoring venue where teams have crossed the 190-run often. In the last game here, the Steelbacks chased down 157 in just 14 Overs. We reckon the team batting first should aim for something around 185-195 to have a good chance of winning the match.
The batting friendliness of the pitch allows for a high-scoring game and would help teams batting second to chase down a total. The back-in-form Rapids would likely opt to bowl first and put the struggling Notts under pressure. The hosts have already lost here while batting first and would prefer chasing a total this time around.
Notts Outlaws are under pressure after two consecutive losses and a struggling batting lineup. They will be facing the Rapids’ challenge at home. The pitch conditions are ideal for a comeback from the hosts. However, considering the current form of Worcestershire’s key players, they will have a slight edge in our match prediction.
