Worcestershire Rapids Director of Cricket Steve Rhodes has named a 13 strong squad for tomorrow evening's NatWest T20 Blast clash with Northamptonshire Steelbacks at New Road (5.30pm start).
Rhodes has selected the 11 players who completed an impressive quickfire double last week over Lancashire Lightning and Derbyshire Falcons plus Richard Oliver and Alexei Kervezee.
All-rounder Moeen Ali will play his final game of his current spell with Worcestershire before linking up with England after the game for a training camp in Spain ahead of The Ashes.
The 28-year-old all-rounder scored 90 in the first encounter with the Steelbacks at Wantage Road.
Colin Munro and David Willey will do battle for the second time in 72 hours on with the Rapids player hoping this time he will come out on the winning side.
Munro earned a recall to the New Zealand side for the T20 international against England at Emirates Old Trafford.
But it was Steelbacks all-rounder Willey who came out on the winning side with figures of 3-22 and the crucial run out of top Black Caps scorer Kane Williamson.
The Rapids, who top the North Group at the half-way stage of the competition, will be bidding for their sixth win in the last seven games.
