Team Previews
Lancashire Preview
Lancashire have started their T20 Blast 2025 season with authority, winning all three matches so far. Their recent performance against Durham showcased their depth in both batting and bowling. Though they stumbled during the chase, the likes of Ashton Turner, Josh Bohannon, and Chris Green provided the finishing touches.
James Anderson’s return has strengthened their bowling attack, as he delivered an economical spell of 3/17. Charlie Barnard and Thomas Aspinwall have been valuable in containing runs during the middle overs. Keaton Jennings and Luke Wells at the top are in good form and expected to provide an explosive start on their home turf. Lancashire’s all-round consistency and tactical adjustments have turned them into serious title contenders this season.
Leicestershire Preview
Leicestershire enter this match with pressure mounting. Their season hasn’t started well, and their batting continues to struggle beyond the top order. Openers Rishi Patel and Soloman Budinger have shown sparks of brilliance — especially Budinger’s 51 off 17 — but the middle order, including Shan Masood and Ben Cox, has failed to build on good starts.
Their bowling department, spearheaded by Logan van Beek and Roman Walker, has shown potential in patches, but hasn’t managed to dominate proceedings. With back-to-back away fixtures, Leicestershire need a turnaround in form. A collective effort from both departments is necessary if they are to challenge the high-flying Lancashire side at Old Trafford.

Favourite Team Today – Lancashire
Lancashire are the clear favourites for this clash.
