Headingley

Yorkshire will take on Glamorgan in their third match of the County Championship Division Two 2023 season at the Headingley, in Leeds from Thursday, May 4.

Yorkshire were relegated to Division Two after a horrid run in the 2022 season. They won only one of their 14 matches and finished ninth in the 10-team Division One. Glamorgan, on the other hand, finished third in Division Two last season and just missed out on promotion to Division One.

Facts

  • Kiran Carlson is the leading run-scorer for Glamorgan currently. He has scored 242 runs in three matches at an average of 48.40.
  • Dawid Malan has scored 174 runs in two matches at an average of 43.50 for Yorkshire.
  • Pacers Ben Coad and Jordan Thompson have picked 9 and 7 wickets respectively for Yorkshire.

Yorkshire vs Glamorgan Chance of Winning

Seventh-placed Yorkshire are more likely to beat fifth-placed Glamorgan in the upcoming match. Yorkshire lost their first match against Leicestershire only because they showed and took the brave decision of declaring their second innings with two well set batters in the middle and two wickets still remaining.

Their second match against Sussex ended in a draw. Chasing 201, Yorkshire were 138/3 when the match was declared a draw. It's won't be wrong to say that Yorkshire were unlucky on both the occasions.

Glamorgan have settled for a draw in each of their first three matches. Their bowling unit is a concern and the batting unit also failed and were made to follow on in their second last match against Durham. In their last outing against Leicestershire, four out of their top seven batters scored less than 11 runs. A hundred from wicketkeeper Chris Cooke and 90 from pacer Michael Nesser helped them post a respectable target.

Yorkshire's bowlers are not as penetrative as their Durham's counterpart but have enough in their arsenal to test Glamorgan batters. The likes of Ben Coad, Matt Milnes, Jordan Thompson, Dom Bess and Matthew Fisher form a very potent bowling unit. The bowlers and a decent Yorkshire batting unit consisting of Shai Hope, Dawid Malan and Adam Lyth are expected to keep the host in good stead.

The fact that Glamorgan have relied heavily on pacer Timm van der Gugten in the bowling department can also work in Yorkshire's favour.

Yorkshire vs Glamorgan Tournament Prediction & Betting Tips 2023

Yorkshire have the team to finish in the top three. They have shown intent and a favourable result can put that fire in their bell. The side, however, will look to have improvements in both the departments.

Glamorgan have a lacklustre bowling attack which will have to work hard if the side are to make any impact this season. The batters also failed in the last match as the team was forced to follow on.

Yorkshire vs Glamorgan Betting Odds

Yorkshire to win

Yorkshire look very much influenced by the 'Bazball' approach and would be the team to watchout for in the upcoming match. A very good bowling unit accompanied with a decent batting unit can make life difficult for Glamorgan who were forced to follow on in their last match against Durham.

Glamorgan's bowling issues are also a concern. They leaked 569/7 in the second innings of the first match against Gloucestershire. Durham posted 417/9 in the only innings they batted against them. The overall team combination of Yorkshire, their positive approach and intent has made them favourites to win their upcoming match against Yorkshire.

Marnus Labuschagne could score only 17 and 5 runs in his first outing of the season against Durham. In the following match, the right-hander scored 64 runs in the only innings he batted. With the Ashes 2023 around, he would be aiming to score big against Yorkshire. Overall, he has played 130 first-class matches and scored 9636 runs at an average just under 47.
