Worcestershire Rapids vs Leicestershire Foxes Team Preview

Worcestershire Rapids

Worcestershire Rapids had a poor record in either the South or North Groups the previous season. However, they have already matched their 2022-win total of two and are hoping for their third consecutive victory in the 2023 Vitality Blast in this match.

In a game where the bowlers consistently outperformed the batters, Worcestershire Rapids’ top batter was Adam Hose (44 runs off 26 balls) in their triumph over Yorkshire Vikings at Headingley on Friday. However, Adam Finch’s 30 not out from 10 balls proved important to the victory. Worcestershire Rapids’ only two wicketless bowlers were Adam Finch and Usama Mir, with Dillon Pennington, Pat Brown, Michael Bracewell, and Brett D’Oliveira all picking up at least one. Pat Brown has already taken four wickets this season.

Leicestershire Foxes

The Foxes have yet to begin their season following two convincing defeats against Lancashire Lightning and Birmingham Bears. Plenty of guys batted in the previous match, but the Foxes will need a big score or two to register a competitive score in this game.

Opener Nick Welch scored 30 runs against Birmingham Bears, and captain Colin Ackermann (27 runs) and Rishi Patel (28 runs) also contributed to the team’s 166-7 victory. Arron Lilley, a batting all-rounder, is a powerful player who has failed to score 20 runs this season. Callum Parkinson took 4-33 against Birmingham Bears on Friday, and he would have been buoyed by earlier performances by spinners at this venue. Rehan Ahmed, like Parkinson, is a very capable spinner in all formats.

Vitality Blast 2023 Cricket Prediction | North Group: Worcestershire Rapids vs Leicestershire Foxes New Road Worcester

 

Both teams will look to bowl early because no target is safe in this game and bowlers may struggle to stop the run flow.

On match day, we predict bright and sunny weather with no rain.

This Vitality T20 Blast match will take place at Worcester’s County Ground, New Road. This surface has a strong pace, but there is significant movement off the pitch for fast bowlers.
