TEAMS PREVIEW
Northamptonshire Preview
Northamptonshire have had an outstanding T20 Blast 2026 campaign. They topped the Central group points table with 9 wins and 3 losses.
They have secured multiple commanding victories, including wins over Glamorgan, Worcestershire, Gloucestershire, Warwickshire, Durham, and Essex. Their strong form has positioned them well for the Quarter-Final clash against Gloucestershire.
Northamptonshire’s batting is powered by explosive performers. Chris Lynn leads the way with 438 runs in 9 innings. He is known for his explosive batting and scored two centuries (115 vs Warwickshire and 117 vs Glamorgan), batting at a strike rate of 180.99 and average of 54.75.
All-rounder David Willey has scored 329 runs in 11 innings at a strike rate of 168.72 and Ricardo Vasconcelos (292 runs in 11 innings), Nathan McSweeney (239 runs in 10 innings) provide excellent depth and firepower throughout the batting order. Justin Broad and Lewis McManus have also batted well, scoring 100+ runs individually.
The bowling attack has been dominant. James Sales leads the wicket-taking charts with 20 wickets in 11 matches. He will be hugely confident going into the game having previously bagged 5/21 vs Gloucestershire earlier this season.
He is well-supported by Calvin Harrison (18 wickets in 10 matches), Ben Sanderson (11 wickets in 10 matches), and captain David Willey (9 wickets in 11 matches). The veteran left-arm pacer Willey got 2-fer against Gloucestershire last time.
Northamptonshire Predicted Playing XI:
Ricardo Vasconcelos (WK), Chris Lynn, Nathan McSweeney, David Willey (C), Saif Zaib, Louis Kimber, Lewis McManus, Calvin Harrison, Luke Procter, Ben Sanderson, George Scrimshaw.

Gloucestershire Preview
Gloucestershire have had a solid T20 Blast 2026 campaign. In a tightly contested group, Gloucestershire qualified as one of the third best placed teams finishing third in Central group with 28 points from 7 wins, 5 losses, same as 2nd placed Somerset.
They have secured several strong victories, including wins over Warwickshire, Glamorgan, Somerset, Worcestershire, and Surrey. They have a tough task in hand against the side that finished top of their group and already lost both the games.
Gloucestershire’s batting is led by explosive overseas talent. D’Arcy Short has been in superb form with 394 runs in 11 innings. The Aussie has a strike rate of 156.35 and average of 39.40.
Three other batters have managed to contribute with 200+ runs, Jack Taylor (228 runs in 10 innings), Miles Hammond (206 runs in 11 innings), and Kamran Dhariwal (202 runs in 9 innings). But no one has even managed to get closer to the performance of Short, which is why Gloucestershire have lagged behind a bit.
The bowling attack remains potent. Duan Jansen has taken 16 wickets in 6 matches, he is their top wicket-taker. But, he is not available for selection for more than a month now.
In his absence Marchant de Lange (12 wickets in 11 matches) and Matt Taylor (10 wickets in 9 matches) would bear the responsibility to bag wickets for Gloucestershire. Other than his batting brilliance, D’Arcy Short has also chipped in with 8 wickets.
Gloucestershire Predicted Playing XI:
D’Arcy Short, Dawid Malan, Miles Hammod, Jack Taylor (C), Kamran Dhariwal, James Bracey (WK), Graeme van Buuren, Liam Scott, Matthew Taylor, Merchant de Lange, James Hayes.

Winning Prediction
Northamptonshire are strong favorites to beat Gloucestershire. Top-of-the-group Northants boast explosive batting from Chris Lynn (438 runs, SR 181) and David Willey, plus a lethal attack led by James Sales (20 wickets). They have already beaten Gloucestershire twice this season, who rely on D’Arcy Short and Marchant de Lange but lack Northamptonshire’s consistency and depth.
