Preview

On June 16, Yorkshire and Leicestershire will meet in the 72nd game of the Vitality Blast 2023 at Headingley in Leeds. This will be a battle between one of the top contenders, Yorkshire, and the bottom performer of the tournament, Leicestershire. Both teams have played eight games. Yorkshire are positioned in third place, and Leicestershire are last in the points table.

Yorkshire smashed Worcestershire in a tough fight in the previous encounter. Yorkshire batted first, and an early wicket didn't affect them as James Wharton smashed his maiden T20 ton, and Dawid Malan scored 79 off 48, his fourth half-century in the last five outings. Both accumulated 159 runs, a record partnership for the second wicket. Importantly, while defending this huge 224, bowlers failed to join the party as they went above 8 runs per over, with the only contribution from Jordan Thompson, who picked up four wickets to halt the run chase and make a difference of 26 runs in the end.

On the other hand, Leicestershire are exactly in the opposite state of their opponent Yorkshire. However, they had decent victories in recent games. Leicestershire bowled first against Durham. Durham's top order dominated the Powerplay. Notable contributions from Callum Parkinson's two for 21 and Josh Hull's one for 26 made sure that the visitors were back in the game in no time. Coming to chase 173, Leicestershire suffered an early blow, but it had the very least impact on their performance. Rishi Patel brought up his maiden T20 century to provide an impressive six-wicket win over Durham.
