The Rapids are looking for their fourth successive victory over Nottinghamshire.

Chasing 177 to beat Leicestershire Foxes last weekend, Worcestershire came up just five runs short of victory in spite of a strong start from their top three – Brett D’Oliveira (32), Matthew Waite (40) and Josh Cobb (34). Ethan Brookes hit 37 runs from 16 balls at number five and he could find himself in the top four for this game.
WOR Team Bowling
Tom Taylor, Ethan Brookes, Hayden Walsh and Josh Cobb all went wicketless in the last match but all four are strong bowlers and are likely to be dangerous in this game. Nathan Smith and Adam Finch both come into this clash after taking a three-wicket haul against the Foxes.

Nottinghamshire Team News & Playing 11
NOT Team News
After five matches in the 2024 Vitality Blast, Nottinghamshire are still looking for their first victory after losing all five games so far! They have massively underperformed considering their personnel and confidence will be low ahead of this visit to Worcester.
NOT Team Batting
There is a chance that ahead of this game skipper Joe Clarke could drop down the order from opener after he made his second duck in a row and this third successive single figure score in the last defeat. Along with Alex Hales, Will Young and Tom Moores, there are plenty of runs and talent in this side.
NOT Team Bowling
There was a wicket each for Matthew Montgomery, Olly Stone, Calvin Harrison and Liam Patterson-White against Lancashire Lightning but we expect Ben Lister to be a threat on this pitch in Worcester. Harrison comes into this game after taking a wicket in each of his last three games.
NOT Team Form
Lancashire Nottinghamshire have looked a shadow of their usual selves this season and are hoping to avoid their sixth successive defeat.
easily beat a good Durham side on Thursday and will arrive with plenty of self-belief.

Joe Clarke (c), Alex Hales, Will Young, Jack Haynes, Matthew Montgomery, Lyndon James, Tom Moores (wk), Liam Patterson-White, Calvin Harrison, Olly Stone, Ben Lister
🏆 Worcestershire vs Nottinghamshire Prediction
Although Worcestershire have lost their last two games, they are up against the bottom of the table side Nottinghamshire who have been very poor throughout this T20 Vitality Blast campaign. Our prediction is that Notts will continue to struggle and we are backing Worcestershire to win.
