YOR Team News
There was a debut for William Luxton in the win over Notts Outlaws at Trent Bridge on Tuesday and although he made a three-ball duck, we expect him to get another chance in a big match in front of a large crowd in this clash against Lancashire.
YOR Key Players
- Dawid Malan - The experienced left-hander hit eight fours and four sixes in his innings on Tuesday. He has hit five centuries across his T20 career.
- Jordan Thompson - The bowling all-rounder is a very reliable player in this format. He dismissed the dangerous Colin Munro against Notts Outlaws.
- David Wiese - The Namibian international bowls from a great height and can often be hard to get away. He got the wickets of both Joe Clarke and Alex Hales in the win on Tuesday.
YOR Team Form
After losing each of their first three matches in the tournament, Yorkshire will now be looking for their second win in a row in this game.

Lancashire Team News & Playing 11
LAN Team News
There was only one change for Lancashire ahead of their last game against Birmingham Bears with Josh Bohannon coming into the team and George Bell taking the gloves as Phil Salt had a back spasm. We expect Salt to be back as wicket-keeper and opening the batting in this fixture.
LAN Key Players
- Daryl Mitchell - The New Zealander was dismissed for only 18 against the Bears but still found time to hit two sixes in his 11-ball innings. He has been in strong form for almost two years.
- Liam Livingstone - The skipper is captaining the team and has a top score of 32 in the campaign so far. However, we saw in the IPL that he is able to get better with every innings and is a very destructive T20 batter.
- Luke Wood - After beginning the Vitality T20 Blast 2023 with excellent performances against Derbyshire Falcons, Leicestershire Foxes and Notts Outlaws, Wood will be keen to get back amongst the wickets in this match.
Lancashire Predicted Playing 11
Luke Wells, Phil Salt (wk), Steven Croft, Daryl Mitchell, Liam Livingstone (c), Colin de Grandhomme, George Bell, Tom Hartley, Luke Wood, Saqib Mahmood, Matt Parkinson

🏆 Yorkshire vs Lancashire Prediction
Whenever Yorkshire and Lancashire meet there is always a big crowd and an excellent atmosphere. We expect more of the same in this game at Headingley on Thursday evening. The Vikings will fancy their chances after their unexpected win over Notts Outlaws but they will need to play to the same level in this game to have any chance. We are backing Lancashire, with their strong batters and bowlers, to win this fixture.
