One of the really interesting parts of this new look T20 Blast this season is the Cross Pool fixtures which often pit sides against each other who have rarely gone head to head if at all.
That is exactly what's in store in Blackpool at Stanley Park as Lancashire, of the North Group, host Glamorgan from South Wales, part of the Central & West Group.
Neither side are flying high in their respective groups and both lost on Friday evening - Lancashire thrashed by their great rivals Yorkshire while Glamorgan's mini-revival came to an end against Worcestershire.
Both sides will be desperate to get back to winning ways!

Sometimes a team just doesn't really turn up in a particularly high profile game, and that is exactly what happened to Lancashire on Friday night who travelled across the Pennines to play their local rivals Yorkshire and were promptly thrashed by 106 runs!
Although there were some poor performances, there were also some impressive ones, for example, Tom Aspinwall returned figure of 3/23 with the ball while Tom Hartley continued his strong start to the tournament with 2/26.
Luke Wood and Saqib Mahmood both need to improve though as the opening pair had combined figures of 1/99!
With the bat, Liam Livingstone top scored while Ben McDermott is a top white ball batter in the middle order.

After making it two wins in a row with a famous victory at Taunton earlier in the week, Glamorgan were brought back down to earth on Friday evening when they were beaten by Worcestershire by 27 runs in a day-night Blast fixture.
The result should not have dented the confidence of the bowlers too much as Glamorgan still took eight wickets but the batters will be particularly frustrated after being dismissed for 141.
With the ball, Andy Gorvin comes into this match after taking 3/34 on Friday while Nathan McAndrew and Dan Douthwaite both took two dismissals each.
Batting wise, captain Kiran Carlson remains the side's in form player although Chris Cooke and Hames Neesham are both very dangerous lower order players in the side.

According to the weather forecast, this will be an overcast day in Lancashire with the temperature unlikely to get above 17 degrees. Expect a chance of a rain shower at times as well.
Stanley Park is not a big ground with huge stands and watching areas and there are plenty of boundary scoring opportunities. A par score will be in the region of 190+.
Neither Lancashire or Glamorgan covered themselves in glory with the bat on Friday evening so we predict that both captains will choose to bowl first in this game.
