The English T20 Blast 2023 kicks off on Saturday, May 20. The opening game will see Derbyshire (DER) lock horns with Lancashire (LAN). The Edgbaston in Birmingham will play host to this exciting DER vs LAN clash. This is a North Group fixture.
Derbyshire had a decent season last year when they won nine games out of 14 and qualified for the knockout stages. They lost to Somerset in the quarter-finals. They will be hoping to repeat their performance this year under the leadership of Leus du Plooy.
Lancashire had a fantastic season last year when they qualified for the final but lost to Hampshire in a thriller of a contest. Dane Vilas has been handed the responsibility of leading Lancashire and they will be looking to go one step further in the English T20 Blast 2023.
