Lewis names 14 for Rapids

Jon Lewis has named a 14-man squad for tonight’s penultimate #Blast17 home match against Worcestershire Rapids at Emirates Riverside (6:30pm start).

The Jets are aiming to bounce back after defeat to Notts Outlaws on Saturday – & a repeat of the last home performance would be welcome as this year’s NatWest T20 Blast draws to close.

A one-run victory over Yorkshire Vikings produced one of the most thrilling finishes ever seen at Emirates Riverside as Usman Arshad held his nerve to complete a stunning win in front of over 6,500 supporters.

Paul Collingwood starred with the bat, scoring 88* to make it 196 runs in two innings after his century in the away match against the Rapids just over two weeks ago.

And the 41-year-old looks set to play again as he looks to add to his 336 runs so far this season.

Gates open at 4:30pm at Emirates Riverside with tickets available on the gate; £20 adults, £5 juniors.

 

Squad vs Worcestershire Rapids (11 August): Paul Coughlin (c), Graham Clark, Tom Latham, Paul Collingwood, Michael Richardson, Jack Burnham, Gareth Harte, Cameron Steel, Ryan Pringle, Stuart Poynter (wk), Usman Arshad, James Weighell, Barry McCarthy, Chris Rushworth
