LAN vs YOR Team Bet:

Mentioned below is the top team betting tip from the LAN vs YOR head-to-head contest.

Yorkshire To Score Under 23.5 Runs Before 1st Dismissal

Yorkshire did pretty well last season finishing second in North Group with 15 points to their bags. However, their opening partnership failed to capitalise throughout the season. They tried a couple of opening combinations including the likes of A Lyth, J Bairstow, M Stoneman, T Kohler-Cadmore, J Tattersall & H Brook. But none of the pairs seemed to do wonders for them. Yorkshire aggregated 272 runs in total from 13 matches before the fall of the first wicket, averaging just 20.92. They posted scores of 7, 10, 1, 11, 19, 34, 33, 13, 8, 6, 113, 11 & 6 for the first wicket. This shows the level of consistency the opening batters had throughout the season. Yorkshire’s total in the last five head-to-head meetings before the fall of the first wicket read 10, 11, 24, 30 against Lancashire. This sums up to 75 runs from four matches, averaging only 18.75 per game for the first wicket. These are not great numbers to have for a team that did so well. In the last five T20 Blast games, Lancashire has leaked runs at an average of 23.20 before the fall of the first wicket. A Lyth who was one of the openers throughout the season had a disastrous campaign last time around averaging just 17.84 from 13 games. Although Yorkshire scored 70 runs for the first wicket in the opening game of the contest this season, we don’t expect them to do that regularly keeping in mind the numbers they have had previously. The stats weigh in favour of this betting tip, thus making it a strong and a reliable one for this game. Pari Match should be offering the best of odds from the LAN vs YOR head-to-head contest.
