Three matches in the Royal One-Day Cup are lined up for Saturday and all matches will be contested from the North Group. It is Yorkshire Vikings vs Worcestershire Rapids at the New Road in Worcester, followed by matches between Lancashire and Warwickshire, Northamptonshire and Leicestershire at Birmingham and Leicester respectively.
Here we will be talking about the game between Yorkshire Vikings and Worcestershire rapids which will be played at the home ground of Rapids, i.e. at the New Road in Worcester.
After 4 wins from 6 games, Worcestershire Rapids are clinging on at the third position on the points table. With two more games to go before the tournament moves to the next round, Rapids will look to consolidate their position on the North Group table with a win here.
Meanwhile, it is all too late for the Vikings as there hopes to move into the next round looks bleak. Having won only 2 games out of 6, they are holding the sixth position with two more games to go. The only positive for them as of now is their healthy net run-rate which can definitely play a part especially when the playoff scenario gets intense. A win here is what they need to keep themselves alive because one more loss and everything would be done and dusted for them.
