NOR vs LAN Dream11 Team Prediction, Fantasy Cricket Tips & Playing 11 Updates for Today's T20 Blast Match

The North Group of the T20 Blast 2021 has Northamptonshire taking on Lancashire at the County Ground in Northampton on Friday.

Northamptonshire, who are at the bottom of the table, finally won their first T20 Blast match of the season against a strong Durham side earlier in the week. Despite not availing the services of Richard Levi and Josh Cobb, Northamptonshire's star batsmen Ricardo Vasconcelos and Adam Rossington paved the way for a big win. With momentum on their side, they will look to sustain it with another win, although it is easier said than done.

Lancashire, in the absence of their international stars Jos Buttler and Liam Livingstone, have struggled a touch lately. But they are still well on course for a top-four finish. While their bowling attack revolves around Matt Parkinson, much is expected of star recruit Finn Allen, who did score a fifty in their previous game. Although they will start today's T20 Blast game as favorites, Lancashire will be wary of what Northamptonshire are capable of achieving, especially with the addition of Mohammad Nabi to their side.

With both teams eyeing a crucial win, we should be in for a T20 Blast thriller at the County Ground in Northampton.
