Lancashire will lock horns with Worcestershire in the North Group match of the T20 Blast 2021 at Old Trafford in Manchester on Thursday. Lancashire have had a rough outing in the T20 Blast ever since their last win over Derbyshire back on June 15.

On that note, here are three players whom you can pick as the captain or vice-captain in your Dream11 team for the T20 Blast 2021 match between Lancashire and Worcestershire.
