NOR vs LEI Dream11 Match Prediction | T20 Vitality Blast 2019 | Northamptonshire vs Leicestershire North Group Match Preview

Leicester, August 09 at 11:00 PM IST

Leicestershire Foxes will welcome Northamptonshire at Grace Road, Leicester tonight with an eye on their third consecutive win in the tournament.

The Foxes have managed back to back wins over Worcestershire and Warwickshire in the previous two encounters and have a perfect opportunity of making it three in a row in front of the home crowd.

North Group Standing

Foxes are comfortably sitting fourth in the table with three wins, four defeats and a no-result in eight encounters. They share the same number of points (seven) with the third-placed Nottinghamshire but are lagging behind due to net run rate.

Northants Steelbacks managed their second win of the tournament in the previous fixture against Durham and will look gain some momentum in the tournament. With two wins in six games, they are placed bottom second in the ladder.

Current form:

Leicestershire – W, L, W, W

Northamptonshire- W, NR, L, W

UPDATE | The sunshine is out and there are blue skies around the FCG!

Things are looking promising ??
