Cricket betting tips: Yorkshire v Lancashire predictions in the T20 Blast

Can Yorkshire Spoil Leicestershire’s Playoff Hopes One Last Time?

• Yorkshire scored more runs in the opening partnership in the reverse fixture and won the match by 106 runs
• Dawid Malan leads Yorkshire with 359 runs, significantly influencing their early innings
• Soloman Budinger’s last four innings include one score under 20, underlining Leicestershire’s inconsistency at the top

Our Best Bet

Among the matches slated, Leicestershire’s face-off against Yorkshire stands out—not because it features two in-form sides, but due to the sheer implications it carries for the hosts. Set to be played at Grace Road, this clash arrives with one side fighting to keep playoff dreams alive and the other already mathematically eliminated.

Leicestershire are placed sixth in the table and require a victory to stay in contention. Their recent form hasn’t inspired much confidence, with just one win in their last five outings, and their previous match was washed out due to inclement weather. Even so, they will look to channel the urgency of their situation into a winning performance.

Yorkshire, on the other hand, have little more than pride left to play for. With only four wins to their name this season and no chance of progressing, their focus now may shift towards ending the campaign on a high. Their most recent outing—a 21-run loss to arch-rivals Lancashire—was another stark reminder of a campaign that promised much but delivered little.

With clear skies forecasted and the temperature expected to hover around 26°C, conditions should favour a full, uninterrupted contest—an ideal scenario for both sides to leave it all out on the field.

Why You Should Back This Prediction

While Leicestershire may have more at stake, Yorkshire have consistently showcased a stronger opening partnership throughout the season, especially when comparing recent individual performances. Even in the reverse fixture earlier this term, Yorkshire not only emerged as dominant winners by 106 runs but also comfortably outshone Leicestershire in terms of both boundary-hitting and opening stand productivity.

William Luxton has been one of the few bright spots for Yorkshire this season, tallying 329 runs at an average of 27.41. Despite a poor outing in the last match, his overall consistency provides stability at the top. Alongside the likes of Dawid Malan, Yorkshire possess a duo capable of getting off to fast starts—a key factor in this three-pronged market. Malan, with 359 runs to his name, is the highest scorer for Yorkshire and has frequently provided early momentum.

Conversely, Leicestershire’s recent batting displays have been erratic. Soloman Budinger, their form batter, has hit scores of 51, 56, and 40 recently, but his 15 in the previous match underlines the volatility in their top order. Their opening partnerships have struggled to find rhythm, often falling short of building early momentum.

Leicestershire may enter the fixture as marginal favourites with a 55% implied win chance, yet Yorkshire’s top-order edge, particularly in setting up or chasing totals, is enough to tilt value towards them. With little pressure on them and capable hitters ready to make a final statement, Yorkshire’s firepower in the opening exchanges could easily set the tone.

Furthermore, in a fixture where recent head-to-heads have seen Yorkshire assert themselves—particularly in the first 10 overs—it becomes easier to visualise this bet landing. And at 2/1, it represents both value and alignment with on-field trends.
