YOR vs WRW Match Prediction & Analysis
Birmingham Bears are looking to build on the top spot in the North Group with a fifth consecutive victory. The team has a two-point advantage over Lancashire as the round two kicks off. The two teams last met each other in the middle of June with Birmingham picking up a comfortable four-wicket victory. This victory will be on the minds of the hosts, who have to make up points to catch Leicestershire or Northants if they are to secure a place in the quarter-finals.
Yorkshire have a positive Net Run Rate (NRR) which will give the team some degree of confidence. The teams from third to sixth are packed together with only one point separating them.
In recent years, it has been very difficult to separate the two teams in the T20 blast fixtures. Yorkshire and Birmingham have shared two wins each in the last four outings.

TEAMS PREVIEW
Yorkshire Preview
Yorkshire are back in the T20 Blast action after matches in the County Championship and the team will be clear about their requirements for advancing into the quarter-finals. In the County Championship matches against Derbyshire and Gloucestershire, the team did not have great conditions for building momentum. As it stands, Yorkshire have not managed back-to-back victories since early June when they beat Northants and Derbyshire.
Adam Lyth and Shan Masood have had decent runs in the last few games. Yorkshire have had significantly better contributions from the top-order batsmen. The focus will be on adding the runs from the middle order as well. The contribution from the lower order continues to remain weak.
Dawid Malan is the top scorer for Yorkshire in the 2024 T20 Vitality Blast with 244 runs but he has struggled in his last two games. Adam Lyth has moved up to 232 runs from his seven innings after his half-century against Durham. Jordan Thompson has been quite useful with the bat in the County Championship matches. He has picked up a wicket in three consecutive T20 Vitality Blast games. Thompson has picked up most wickets (13) for Yorkshire.
Yorkshire Predicted Playing XI:
Adam Lyth, Dawid Malan, Joe Root, Shan Masood (c), Donovan Ferreira, Jordan Thompson, Matthew Revis, Dom Bess, Jafer Chohan, Conor McKerr, Dan Moriarty

Birmingham Bears Preview
Birmingham Bears have not been in action since June 21. They, however, are looking to add to a run of four consecutive victories that have helped them go top of the North Group after the first round of games. The team has managed to drop points in just two of the eight matches but they have a slightly lower Net Run Rate compared to Lancashire. In the race for the top spot in the North Group, the battle is likely to go down to the wire.
Sam Hain is close to hitting 300 runs in the 2024 edition of Vitality Blast. The 28-year-old has had 297 runs with a big chunk of them coming in the recent win over Worcs. Even though he is yet to hit a century in this edition, Hain has been a thorn for the opposition.
Danny Briggs has led the bowlers of Birmingham with his consistent set of performances. The 33-year-old has picked up 13 wickets so far in the tournament – including at least one in his last four Vitality Blast games. Jake Lintott hasn’t excelled in recent games but he comes a close second with 12 wickets.
Birmingham Bears Predicted Playing XI:
Alex Davies (c), Ed Barnard, Dan Mousley, Sam Hain, Jacob Bethell, Chris Benjamin, George Garton, Craig Miles, Michael Booth, Jake Lintott, Danny Briggs

PITCH AND WEATHER CONDITIONS
Weather Conditions
The pitch has been conducive for batting with plenty of decent scores posted by teams. The weather is expected to be cloudy for the game and this may result in spinners getting action towards the latter half. The ground has not produced a great surface for teams chasing down a score. The average first innings score in the last four games has been 149.8.

Headingley Grounds in Leeds will be the location for this T20 Vitality Blast match. Yorkshire have had a very good run at the Headingley Grounds in 2024 with three wins out of four. The team has been able to post scores above 150 in three of these four games.
Toss: To Bat
The teams batting first have ended up winning three out of the last four matches on this ground. Any team is likely to be aware of the cloudy conditions on the day and go with the option of batting first if they win the toss.
YOR vs WRW
Winning Prediction
Birmingham Bears have been at the consistent best over the last few games. The team has managed four successive victories. Yorkshire may have players like Adam Lyth and Shan Masood in decent form but that is insignificant compared to the run of form shown by the likes of Sam Hain and Danny Briggs for the Bears.
Our prediction is for Birmingham Bears to win
