Derbyshire will be hosting Yorkshire in the North Group match which is one of the two T20 Blast games to be played on Saturday. Both the teams had underwhelming performances during the previous edition failing to qualify for the quarter-finals. Yorkshire had seven wins from 14 matches and were one win short of going into next round depending on NRR. Derbyshire, on the other hand, ended up below Yorkshire with 12 points.

Derbyshire wasn’t actually behind Yorkshire as two of their matches ended without a result including one where they were on the top. The two teams will be aiming to start their campaign with a win. This will be Derbyshire’s first game of the season but Yorkshire’s second. The first match of Yorkshire was slated to be played on Friday against Nottinghamshire but ended without a result.
