Derbyshire (DER) will lock horns with Northamptonshire (NOR) in the 24th match of the Vitality T20 Blast 2023. The County Ground in Derby will host this exciting clash on Monday, May 29.

Derbyshire have not had a great start to the tournament as they have suffered disappointing losses in both games so far. Against Nottinghamshire, Luis Reece (53) and Wayne Wadsen (61) hit useful fifties as Derbyshire posted a competitive total of 178/6 in 20 overs.

Defending 179, George Scrimshaw picked up three wickets with the ball but it wasn’t enough as Nottinghamshire chased down the target with three overs to spare. With this loss, Derbyshire slipped to seventh place in the points table with a net run rate of -1.121.

Northamptonshire, on the other hand, also had a disappointing start to their campaign as they have lost two consecutive games. In their previous game, Northamptonshire failed to impress in both departments as Durham thrashed them by 10 wickets.
