Wiltshire host National Counties Trophy holders Berkshire at the South Wilts club in Salisbury today seeking to reach the final for the first time since 2012.

Wiltshire's semi-final XI is boosted by the availability of Warwickshire left-arm wrist spinner Jake Lintott.

Lintott was a regular in Wiltshire's T20 side this season but his Warwickshire commitments have so far ruled him out of their Trophy campaign. He replaces Jack Mynott in the only change to the side that beat Hertfordshire in the quarter-finals.

Wiltshire are also able to again include left-arm seamer Josh Croom who is on an extended trial with Warwickshire.

Berkshire have named contracted Middlesex pair Toby Greatwood and Jack Davies in their squad.

Greatwood played in the drawn three-day match against Devon earlier this week but the semi-final will be his first appearance for them in the Trophy.

Davies will make his first Trophy appearance of the season having made a half-century in last year's final. He also played in Berkshire's winning team in the 2019 final.

Josh Lincoln and Adam Searle make way for Greatwood and Davies in the changes to the squad that was named for the quarter-final against Dorset.
