Staffordshire have named their travelling party for this weekend’s NCCA Championship game at Suffolk.

Staffs make the long trip to Copdock aiming for a second successive Division One East victory.

The county opened up their title defence with a seven-wicket victory over Lincolnshire at Checkley.

Staffordshire make one change to that side with captain James Kettleborough returning in place of Amir Khan.

James Kettleborough: Staffordshire failed to find batting solutions

Kettleborough sat out the Checkley match after his wife Jenny gave birth to son Ollie on the eve of the game.

The victory left Staffordshire top of the Division One East table after they picked up 21 points.

Suffolk are searching for their first win after losing to Buckinghamshire and drawing with Cambridgeshire in their opening two matches.

Staffordshire: James Kettleborough (cpt, Checkley), Tom Moulton (Leek), Matt Morris (Burslem), Reeve Evitts (Wolverhampton), Michael Hill (Wombourne), Jack Redman (Audley), Callum Hawkins (Moddershall & Oulton), Sam Atkinson (Moddershall & Oulton), Liam Hurt (Flixton), Jacob Garlick (Moddershall & Oulton), Tom Brett (Finedon Dolben). 12th man: Ed Batchelor (Stone SP).
