Worcestershire continue on their dry spell and they lost to Warwickshirein the match prior to this. The former, having batted first as the visitors, posted a competitive stand of 333 runs on the board with Ethan Brookes’ 140 as the top score.

However, the bowlers made a meal of the final innings as they failed to curtail the opposition and conceded defeat by five wickets.

Openers Joe Weatherley and Fletcha Middleton scored 52 runs apiece and their 94-run opening stand was commendable. Nottinghamshire were 108/1 when a lack of time thwarted a result.

Worcestershire vs Hampshire Betting Tips

Worcestershire to score low before first dismissal

Gareth Roderick and Jake Libby have had their ups and downs over the course of the season and their partnership never attained consistency. During the previous five games,they posted scores of 32, 80, 3, 23, 4, 64, 20, 31 and 1 runs, and they have only had two competitive stands to show for themselves. Since they are not entirely reliable, they are not expected to put on a big total in the next game either.

Worcestershire vs Hampshire Toss Prediction

County Ground in New Road is more favorable tothose fielding first who have two wins so farwhile those batting first have a single victory. The remaining game was drawn but chasing was a popular choice since the toss winners elected to do so three out of four times. Moreover, the average first innings score of 240 is quite low which will make fielding first the top choice.

Weather Report

A strong 50% chance of rain is predicted at Worcesterand light rain will disrupt the game. The temperature is expected to touch 22 degrees Celsius.

Worcestershire vs Hampshire Betting Odds

Hampshire to have a better opening partnership than Worcestershire

Gareth Roderick and Jake Libby are an established opening pair in the tournament but even though they have been the mainstays, their collaboration has yielded erratic results. In the last three games, they secured totals of 32, 80, 3, 23 and 4 runs. However, Hampshire have been better in this regard, especially now that Joe Weatherley has taken over from a struggling Ali Orr to open alongside Fletcha Middleton.The openers set up stands of 94, 19, 54 and 34 runsin the last three encounters, and they are expected to build on that form as they head into the next fixture.

Our Prediction

Favorites to win

Hampshire

Worcestershire languish in last place in the standings, and they have a single win to their credit so far. They lost six matches and drew three which puts them in a precarious position against any team they take on. Hampshire are a middling team this season with two victories, two defeats and six drawn matches, but they are expected to outperform Worcestershire in the upcoming game.
