Numbers

  • Head to head in last 5 games, Warwickshire leads 4-1.
  • D’Arcy Short – 397 runs and 9 wickets this season.
  • Matty Potts – 15 wickets in 10 games this season.
  • Sam Hain – 388 runs in 10 games this season.

Durham

First person you want to pick in your fantasy team has to be Australian opener D’Arcy Short who has been in great form with the bat and has also been a huge bonus with the ball, now the team throwing him the ball in every match. His opening partner Scott Steel is another good pick as he has 324 runs this season to go with a few wickets as well, as they have been using him to open with the ball too.

Talking about the bowling, two players have really stood one. One of them is Matty Potts who is their leader in the 2019 Vitality Blast while the other is Australian fast bowler Nathan Rimmington, having picked 15 and 13 wickets respectively, having played 10 games each. Liam Trevaskis could be a higher value pick as he isn’t a popular player but has 10 wickets and can swing with the bat if needed too.

Warwickshire

Two players have managed to get 300 or more runs in this series so far, the leader being Sam Hain who has 384 runs including 2 fifties and his only low score of 6 coming in the last game. Close behind him is Adam Hose who also has 2 fifties and a tally of 300 runs in the season so far, and not many others have scored consistently.

Please include the 20-year old Henry Brookes in your Howzat (sign-up with code “READ1234”) fantasy team as he’s their leading wicket-taker in this series with 13 wickets in 10 games so far. While there’s youth on one end, there’s experience on the other as off-spinner and former New Zealand international Jeetan Patel is their next best bowler with 10 wickets in the season so far.
