THE St Lawrence Ground is set to host the British Universities Sports Association's men's cricket final on Tuesday.

For the second year in a row Loughborough go head to head against Durham, the former having beaten the University of Nottingham in the semi-final and the latter overcoming Cambridge.

Both sides have had successful league campaigns this season. Loughborough will go into the match as favourites having finished top ahead of Durham and having enjoyed a 63-run victory over Tuesday's opponents in the league encounter.

There are county-contracted players in both teams and the 50-over match promises to be an exciting battle.

Play gets underway at 11am and entry is free. Directions to the ground can be found at www.kentccc.com.
