Leicestershire and Worcestershire are the two bottom-placed teams in the North Group of the T20 Blast 2022 season. They are obviously struggling and need something dramatic to change things around. In the case of Leicestershire, they are at least in touch with teams above them but Worcestershire is falling far behind.

Leicestershire has three wins from nine matches while Worcestershire has just one match from the eight it has played.

LEI vs WOR Team Previews

Leicestershire

Leicestershire has lost its previous three matches in the T20 Blast and will certainly be looking for a win to avoid slipping too far back from the rest of the group. Just one win separates it from the fourth-placed team and so not all is lost right now.

The batting lineup for Leicestershire has not been up to the marks o far and the same thing sunk it in the previous match as well. Scott Steel, Aaron Lilley, Colin Ackerman, and Wihaan Mulder are experienced players but they have not been able to come together as a unit this season.

One of them needs to have an excellent game to be able to get a win against Worcestershire.

Naveen ul Haq and Callum Parkinson will lead the bowling attack for Worcestershire. They will both know they are up against a struggling Worcestershire batting lineup and certainly target this as a match where they can get some wickets.

Leicestershire Playing 11

Harry Swindells, Rishi Patel, Nick Welch, Arron Lilley, Colin Ackermann, Wiaan Mulder, Lewis Hill, Ben Mike, Rehan Ahmed, Naveen-ul-Haq, Callum Parkinson.


Worcestershire

Worcestershire is going to be without Moeen Ali since he will be with the England team. That is a big loss on paper but Moeen Ali did not really do much for Worcestershire in the time that he was with the team. The problem for Worcestershire has been that its other big signings, Colin Munro and Dwayne Bravo, have also not done too well for the team.

As a result, the batting looks underpowered and has struggled to get enough runs to compete. The bowling is not the best at picking wickets and geared towards building pressure by accurate death bowling. Pat Brown and Dwayne Bravo are both extremely good at that but the execution from them so far has been lacking.

Worcestershire Playing 11

Ed Pollock, Brett D Oliveira, Colin Munro, Jack Haynes, Ed Barnard, Kashif Ali, GH Roderick, Dwayne Bravo, Josh Baker, Mitchell Stanley, Patrick Brown.

Pitch and Conditions

The conditions in Leicester are expected to be good for batting. The weather around the UK has been quite hot and not too much rain is forecast. The outfield will be blazing fast and the surface absolutely flat. This will allow the teams to target big totals although neither team's batting has been successful at doing that so far.

We think 170-180 should be seen as par for the surface.

We are going to bet on Leicestershire to win this match. We think this is a contest between two flawed teams that have struggled to play at their best. Going by current form and the fact that Leicestershire is playing at home, we think the Foxes have a slight edge.
