Nottinghamshire vs Durham match prediction 8 Apr 2021

NOT vs DUR Match Predictions from Professional Gamblers

The 7th match of the County Championship will take place between Nottinghamshire and Durham. The match is scheduled to take place on April 8 at Trent Bridge in Nottingham. I have set aside the best Nottinghamshire vs Durham Match Predictions and Betting Tips from the game for you.

Nottinghamshire and Durham were placed in the North Group in last year's Bob Willis trophy. Both the teams played 5 matches and did not manage to win a single game in the season, lost 2 games, and drew 3 games. They still finished at different places in the table, as Durham had a much lower Net Run Rate than Nottinghamshire. Where Nottinghamshire finished the tournament with an NRR of 4.033, Durham got just 1.368. It is for this reason, that Nottinghamshire are the favourites to win the upcoming match, with odds of just 1.47 for them. Even though the last game between them was a draw, these odds are well thought out. I have picked the top NOT vs DUR match predictions so you can win some money from the game.

NOT vs DUR Player Bets

The County Championships gives us a lot of opportunities to make money. With 8 games starting at the same time, there are a lot of players who can give us a chance to make money. I have checked the past tournaments and stats of all the players from the teams and picked the top three players to make a win from. Take a look at the top Nottinghamshire vs Durham player betting tips.

Alex Lees to score over 21.5 runs

I would like to start with the consistent opener playing for Durham. Alex Lees has played 115 First-Class matches and scored 6450 runs from them. This averages 34.86 from 198 innings, which is spectacular play for the odds already. In the last season, in the Bob Willis Trophy, he was the top scorer for Durham with 386 runs from 8 innings. He averaged 48.25 in the series and scored over the target in 6 of the 8 innings. If we consider just his play in the 1st innings, he scored a total of 253 runs (31, 84, 64, 66, 8) from 5 innings. His average in his 1st innings was 50.6 and he scored over the target in 4 of the 5 innings.

Even if we look at his play in the County Championship 2019, he was pretty good on his feet. He was the top scorer for his team in that season too with 899 runs from 25 innings. While his average was 37.45, which is feasible for our bet, he had 3 centuries and 3 half-centuries in the game in the season. Alex Lees is one of the top NOT vs DUR match predictions for you to bet on. Sportsbet.io has offered odds of 1.85 for Alex Lees to score over 21.5 runs and you should go for it.

Michael Jones to score under 17.5 runs

The second bet is against another top-order batsman from Durham. Micheal Jones has had some extremely poor performances in the past, and with a year's sabbatical, it is unlikely that he got any better. The youngster from Durham has played only 8 First-Class innings in his career, and he has scored a total of 106 runs from them. While this averages 13.25, he scored 82 runs in the 2nd innings in one game in the Bob Willis trophy and has not scored over the target in any other game. In fact, in the 5 1st innings he has come out to bat, he has scored a total of 5 runs, with a top score of just 2 runs. This is another winning NOT vs DUR betting tip. You can make this bet at Sportsbet.io with odds of 1.85 for Michael Jones to score under 17.5 runs.

Steven Mullaney to score over 23.5 runs

The final bet is for the skipper of the Nottinghamshire team who has been ferocious with his piece of willow. Steven Mullaney has played 241 innings and scored 7727 runs from them. This averages 33.30, and while it's not extremely high, it's Mullaney's consistency we are betting on. In the previous season in the Bob Willis Trophy, Steven Mullaney scored a total of 235 runs from 7 innings at an average of 33.57. In the 5 first innings he came out to bat in the tournament, he scored a total of 182 runs from the games. This averages 36.2 and he scored over the required target in 3 of the 5 games. This includes his game against Durham, where he scored 41 runs.

Even if we look at his performances in the 2019 season of the County Championship, he played phenomenally. He was the top scorer for his team in the tournament with 694 runs from 24 innings. Although his average was moderate at 28.91, in the last 5 games of the tournament he scored 246 runs. This is an extremely good market, and one of the best NOT vs DUR betting tips. Sportsbet.io has offered odds of 1.85 for Steven Mullaney to score over 23.5 runs.
