Headingley

Yorkshire will take on Derbyshire in the T20 Blast 2023 North Group match at Headingley in Leeds on Sunday, June 4. The action will kick start from 4:00 PM IST.

Yorkshire reached the semi-final stage of the T20 Blast 2022 where they lost by six wickets. Derbyshire reached the quarterfinal where they lost to Somerset by 191 runs.

Yorkshire vs Derbyshire Chance of Winning

Yorkshire are on a two much unbeaten run and are favourites to make it three in three by beating Derbyshire on Sunday. The last two matches have seen them post runs in excess of 180. Dawid Malan is in top form for Yorkshire and will come across as a major threat for Derbyshire.

Yorkshire have a few international stars who are likely to keep their team ahead in the tournament. Adam Lyth, Dom Bess, Shan Masood and David Wiese are players who can single-handedly win matches for Yorkshire.

Derbyshire have also won their last two matches and their pace unit consisting of Zak Chappell and Zaman Khan was in top form in their last outing against Warwickshire. Each of the two bowlers picked three wickets apiece.

However, Yorkshire surely have an edge over Derbyshire in the batting department. There isn't any major big name in the squad and Wayne Madsen (348) have scored bulk of the runs. The next highest-scorer in the team is Luis Reece who has scored 109 runs in five matches at an average of 21.80.

Overall form and composition of the team make Yorkshire the favourites despite two comprehensive wins by Derbyshire recently.

Tournament Prediction & Betting Tips 2023

Shan Masood of Yorkshire is yet to join the party and eyes will be on the senior batter in the upcoming match. The first five matches have seen him score 70 runs only at an average of 18.20 and a strike rate of 130. He was in blazing form last year and that contributed massively to the team's success. The side would expect the same this year as well.

Another Pakistan star Haider Ali is part of the Derbyshire squad but he has failed to get going. In the four matches he has played so far, the batter has scored 54 runs in five matches at an average of 10.80. 32 of these runs came in the last match against Warwickshire. Derbyshire would want him to get back in form as soon as possible to go deep in the tournament.

Match Toss Prediction

In the first match at the venue this season, Yorkshire won the toss and opted to bowl first but Durham won the match by 28 runs. In the second match here, Lancashire opted to bowl but Yorkshire won by 15 runs. The team winning the toss, might possibly look to bat at this venue this time.

Our Prediction

Favorites to win: Yorkshire

Yorkshire are very likely to register their third consecutive win by beating Derbyshire who have also won their last two matches. However, Yorkshire is ahead of them in terms of T20 batting quality. Derbyshire don't have any big T20 name in their side and Wayne Madsen has done bulk of the scoring. Luis Reece who has scored 109 runs in five matches at an average of 21.80. This can come to haunt them against Yorkshire who have a very potent bowling attack.

In the batting department as well the presence of Dawid Malan, Adam Lyth and Shan Masood make them a formidable force. We are backing Yorkshire to bet Derbyshire in the upcoming match.

Yorkshire to win @ 1.65 (Melbet)

Derbyshire to win @ 2.24 (Melbet)
