Durham head to Emirates Old Trafford Cricket Ground to face Lancashire in the Metro Bank One Day Cup quarter-finals tomorrow at 11am.
Ryan Campbell has named a squad of 13 with Duanne Olivier dropping out of the 14 from the final group game against Worcestershire Rapids.
Durham qualified for the knockout stage after finishing third in Group B with five wins and three losses during the group stage.
The Red Rose meanwhile secured second place in Group A as they also ended their group campaign with five wins and three losses.
Graham Clark, Matthew Potts, Brydon Carse, and Ben Raine remain on franchise duty ahead of the final stages of The Hundred this weekend.
The winner of the tie will take on Group B winners Middlesex at Radlett on Sunday 16 August from 11am.
Words from Ryan Campbell
You’ve got to somehow get there and, you know, over the course of 8 games, I think we’ve played some really good cricket.
We’ve also played some pretty yucky cricket, but, at the end of the day, if you keep in control of your own destiny, going into the last game you feel pretty good about it.
We obviously knew roughly what we needed to do today and we want to win competitions. That’s what we’re all about.
For the fact that we’ve got to the quarterfinals, whoever we play, wherever we play, we know that we have the team and we have the game to challenge anyone.
Squad v Lancashire (14 August)
Colin Ackermann, Kasey Aldridge*, David Bedingham, George Drissell, Shafiqullah Ghafari, Alex Lees, Ben McKinney, James Minto, Callum Parkinson, Will Rhodes, Luke Robinson, Ollie Robinson+, Ben Stokes.
Opposition Corner
Captain: George Balderson
2025 Position: 8th (Group B)
2025 Most Runs: Marcus Harris (337)
2025 Most Wickets: Arav Shetty (9)
Why they can win the competition: A young Lancashire side has only won three of 16 matches combined across the past two campaigns, with only one of those coming last season. Their squad had been decimated by Hundred call-ups but should be stronger through this campaign.
Player to watch: Josh Bohannon hasn’t had the season he would have hoped, but he’s enjoyed this competition recently with three centuries across 2024 and 2025. Fingers crossed, he can underpin a title challenge alongside batting colleagues like Marcus Harris and Keaton Jennings.
Young gun: Lancashire believe dynamic 17-year-old wicketkeeper-batter Joe Moores is a star of the future. The England Under 19s left-hander made his senior debut in last year’s Metro Bank One-Day Cup and has broken into the other two formats this summer.
Final thought: Off the Rothesay County Championship promotion pace, the Red Rose just failed to reach the quarter-finals of the Vitality T20 Blast, a stage of the competition they are regulars at. They desperately need a pick-me-up over the next few weeks.
