Derbyshire vs Yorkshire Chance of Winning
Yorkshire are the red-hot favourites to beat Derbyshire in the upcoming match. After losing their first three matches, Yorkshire have won each of their next six matches. The confidence they have at the moment is unparalleled. Yorkshire and Derbyshire have earlier met on June 4 as the former emerged victorious by seven wickets.
Derbyshire, on the other hand, have a lot to ponder upon. Just three wins in nine matches is a cause to worry. They would have lost their last match against Durham as well but a last ball boundary helped them play a tie.
Derbyshire batters have heavily relied upon Wayne Madsen who is their only batter with over 200 runs at a strike in excess of 31. That is the same reason why they have been losing despite having a pace trio of Zak Chappell, Zaman Khan and George Scrimshaw who have picked 16, 15 and 13 wickets respectively.
Derbyshire chances of winning - 39%
Yorkshire chances of winning - 61%

Our Prediction
Favorites to win: Yorkshire
Yorkshire look set for another cracking win by beating Derbyshire in their next match. Yorkshire have now won six consecutive matches and look unstoppable at the moment. The second-placed side in the North Group is not just winning but winning by comprehensive margins. They defeated Leicestershire by eight wickets in their last match. In the earlier three matches, their winning margin was 26 runs, 30 runs and seven wickets respectively.
It's a fact that Yorkshire have relied heavily on Dawid Malan's batting brilliance but others also have chipped in from time-to-time. In the last match his opening partner Adam Lyth blasted 90 off just 50. Their bowling unit is one of the best and possesses a lot of variety. Jordan Thompson (16), Ben Mike (12), David Wiese (10), Matthew Revis (7) and Dom Bess (4) - all feature in the bowling unit.
Stopping Yorkshire will not at all be easy for Derbyshire in the upcoming match.
