T20 Blast 2022 | YOR vs LAN | Preview, Prediction, Probable XI, CREX XI

Yorkshire will lock horns with Lancashire in Match 57 of T20 Blast 2022 on June 8 (Wednesday) at Headingley, Leeds. 

Yorkshire is heading into this game with three wins in six league matches. In their last league game, the 'White Roses' posted a strong score of 202 on the board, with the contributions of Jonathan Tattersall (48), Harry Brook (40), and David Willey (34). Dominic Drakes was the pick of the bowlers with three scalps to his name, helping the team get a much-needed win.  

The David Willey-led team will not look to tinker with the winning combination in this game and continue the fine momentum. Harry Brook is expected to feature in this game before joining England's squad for the 2nd Test against New Zealand. 

On the other hand, Lancashire is at the top of the table with four victories in five appearances. In their last outing, the bowling unit was impressive in containing the opposition to a score of 153. In the second half, Tim David emerged as the top-scorer with 42 off 26, and Dane Vilas (32) provided a strong support. 

The team management is not expected to make many changes in the squad, which has built good momentum and have been clinical in both departments. Apart from Liam Livingstone and David, Richard Gleeson and Phil Salt are their key players.
