LEI vs DER: Who will win?

Both these teams haven’t had a good start to their campaign so far. Leicestershire Foxes have won just 2 matches so far whereas Derbyshire is yet to win their first match. Both are equally disturbed by the fact that both their batting and bowling departments haven’t been performing up to the mark. With too many games getting washed out due to rain, these two teams still stand a chance to make it to the quarter-finals despite under-performing in the initial stages of the tournament. That being said Leicestershire, is slightly well-positioned than Derbyshire to win this match.

Leicestershire to win the match

• Derbyshire team looks rusty, they haven’t won any matches in the tournament so far.
• Callum Parkinson looks in tremendous form, he has been controlling the flow of runs. He is expected to do the same as per today match prediction.
• The average economy rate for the Derbyshire bowling attack is among the highest in the tournament.

LEI VS DER MATCH PREDICTION

Leicestershire batting has been quite off the radar. Aaron Lilley with 192 runs and Gareth Delany with 162 runs are the only two batsmen who have runs over a 100. The lack of support from Colin Ackerman is also pulling back the Leicestershire batting. They need to score some extra runs, unlike their last matches if they are to beat the Derbyshire batting line-up, who looks good on paper.

In the bowling department, Callum Parkinson has been pretty impressive with five wickets, that too coming at a good economy rate. Delany, Ackerman, and Davies has been leaking runs consistently. Even though they look strong on paper, Derbyshire batting is also struggling for runs. Wayne Madsen and Leus de Plooy are the only two batsmen with a fifty-plus score this season. Hughes, Critchley, Reece, and Godleman make a decent batting lineup but are yet to make a note-worthy in this tournament so far.

Derbyshire bowling is the weakest in the tournament. None of their bowlers have more than 3 wickets to their name. The average economy rate for the bowling attack is among the highest in the tournament.

LEI vs DER Toss Prediction and Pitch Report

There is less chance of rain interrupting the match and hence full 40 overs of play is expected. The pitch looks ideal for batting. A small ground added with the flat deck is likely to suit the big hitters. The captain who wins the toss is most likely to chase, considering the weak bowling line-up of both the teams. The team batting first should be looking to put a total of at least 170 runs on the board.

Predicted first innings score:

If Leicestershire bats first: 160-170

If Derbyshire bats first: 170-180
