Although they have won one match so far this season, Northamptonshire are down in eighth place in the North Group ahead of this game. They lost their third game of the campaign to Birmingham Bears by 21 runs on Wednesday evening.
Opener Ricardo Vasconcelos hit 65 runs from 39 balls in the defeat to Birmingham Bears and in doing so hit his second half-century of the tournament. David Willey has made important contributions but Chris Lynn is yet to hit a score over 31.
In the last game, six wickets were shared out evenly between captain David Willey, Australian Andrew Tye and Freddie Heldreich. 21 year old left-arm wrist spinner Heldreich caught the eye with the wickets of Alex Davies and Glenn Maxwell in successive balls.
After beating Derbyshire Falcons by 6 wickets in the previous game, hopes were high that Northamptonshire would beat Birmingham Bears in their last game but they were unable to do so.

There is no team beneath Leicestershire in the North Group as they have played four and lost four in the Vitality T20 Blast 2023 so far. However, their most recent defeat, to Derbyshire Falcons, was by only 2 runs on Thursday evening.
Chasing 190 to win against the Falcons, Leicestershire got very close thanks mainly to 59 runs from 38 balls from captain Colin Ackermann, 44 runs from 28 balls from Rishi Patel and 30 runs from 20 balls from opener Nick Welch.
On a turning wicket in Leicester, it was the spin pair of Callum Parkinson and Rehan Ahmed who impressed as both took two wickets. England Test player Ahmed took 2-20 from his four overs and was able to confuse batters in the flight as well as off the pitch.
Although it was a very narrow defeat in the last game the Foxes are looking to avoid their fifth successive defeat in this game.

Between them, they have won only one match so far in this year’s tournament and Leicestershire are still looking for their first victory. Northamptonshire have played nowhere near their best but we expect them to be too good for Leicestershire and are backing the Steelbacks to win.
