TEAMS PREVIEW
Northamptonshire Preview
Northamptonshire’s campaign has not started on the brightest note, with two heavy defeats, one abandoned game, and just a single win so far. The good news is that the win came in style, as they hammered Durham by 150 runs. That result should lift their confidence, and the Steelbacks will now look to build momentum and move higher up the standings.
For that to happen, their batting needs greater stability. Justin Broad has been the most reliable option, scoring 126 runs in three outings at an average of 42 and a strike rate of 99.21. James Sales also stood out in his first appearance this season, blasting a superb 117 off 110 balls to help his side post 321 for 8 against Durham, setting up that big victory.
Tim Robinson and George Bartlett have chipped in as well, each moving past 85 runs while keeping a healthy tempo.
In terms of bowling, Liam Guthrie has been outstanding, taking seven wickets from three matches at an economy rate of 5.30. Yuzvendra Chahal has played an important role too, claiming six wickets in three games and regularly troubling batters with his variations. Luke Procter has been among the wickets too. For Northamptonshire to push for another win, their attack must apply pressure in the middle overs.
Northamptonshire Predicted Playing XI:
Ricardo Vasconcelos, Lewis McManus (c & wk), James Sales, Tim Robinson, Justin Broad, George Bartlett, Luke Procter, Rob Keogh, Liam Guthrie, Yuzvendra Chahal, Nirvan Ramesh

Sussex Preview
Sussex Sharks find themselves in fifth position with two wins and two defeats. Their most recent outing was a thrilling one-wicket victory over Lancashire, where they chased a daunting 339, a result that should give them plenty of confidence heading further into the tournament.
Tom Clark has been the standout batter so far, compiling 184 runs from four innings at an average of 46 and a strike rate of 102. Jack Carson has provided dependable runs lower down, scoring 155 across four innings at an average of 77.50 while striking at 118.32.
Fynn Hudson-Prentice and Oliver Carter have added steady contributions as well, both passing 140 runs and giving the line-up extra depth.
Henry Crocombe has led the attack effectively, taking six wickets in four matches at an economy of 6.21. Danny Lamb and Aristides Karvelas have also been among the wickets with five each. The bowling unit has done well to this point, though they could be tested on the batting-friendly surface in Northampton.

Winning Prediction
After a disappointing start to the season, Northamptonshire Steelbacks have finally got their first win of the season. That huge win will give them confidence as they take on Sussex Sharks at home next. Sussex have had a stop-start season but have performed better than Northamptonshire overall. Based on form and squad strength, Sussex are the safer bets for this clash.
Back Sussex Sharks to come out victorious in this clash.
