Leicestershire and Nottinghamshire are all set to lock horns in the 90th fixture of the North Group Division in the 2023 T20 Blast Competition at Chester-le-Street. The game will kick off on June 20 at 11 pm IST.
Leicestershire are down and out and have been out of steam for most of the tournament. They are currently languishing at the bottom of the North Group Point’s table with a shambolic NRR of -0.993. After suffering a series of massive defeats, any chance of a potential comeback appears slim.
On the flip side, Nottinghamshire have the winning momentum behind them and have fared comparatively better than their rival. They are ranked third in the North Group Point’s table with an NRR of -0.309. The side would look to make a strong recovery after being blown away by Northamptonshire in their previous fixture by a shocking 78 runs.

Leicestershire vs Nottinghamshire Pitch Report
The deck at Grace Cricket Ground may favor the quick bowlers early on as they can take full advantage of the gloomy overcast conditions. The ball may nip around a bit in the early phase of the game which can potentially cause a few problems for the batters.
As the new ball settles down, run-scoring will progressively become easier and batters will be able to take more risks.
Teams chasing have won on more occasions (28) as opposed to teams batting first (25) which serves as a strong indicator that the pitch is highly suitable for batting.
