Northern Diamonds (NOD) will take on the Lightning (LIG) in match 15 of the English Women's One Day Trophy on Saturday at the Emirates Riverside in Chester-le-Street.
The Northern Diamonds have made a bright start to the season, winning their last two matches by big margins. Lightning, on the other hand, haven't had a great start. They have won only one of their last two matches against the Thunder by five wickets.
The Lightning will be keen to win the match and make a comeback in the tournament, but the Northern Diamonds are a relatively better team. The Northern Diamonds are expected to win this nail-biting encounter.
