Northamptonshire Steelbacks are set to take on Yorkshire Vikings in Match 14 of the England Domestic One-Day Cup 2025 at Northampton tomorrow afternoon. Their first outing was washed out due to rain, so they'll be eager to get some game time and start building momentum with a win. Yorkshire began their tournament with a strong win and will want to build on that early success. Going by the depth in both squads, Yorkshire seem slightly better placed heading into this one.

Yorkshire have had a pretty solid start to the One-Day Cup. On a seaming wicket at Scarborough, they bowled out Warwickshire for just 137, and chased the target in 32.5 overs with five wickets in hand.
Imam-ul-Haq (55 off 83) and William Luxton (25 off 21) laid the foundation of the chase with their useful knocks, while the rest of the batters couldn’t make much of an impact.
The batting unit looks solid enough and should do well on most pitches. Luxton, especially, will be counted upon to make a healthy contribution. He was their top run-getter in the One-Day Cup last season, with 247 runs in eight innings at an average of 35.28 and a strike rate of 78.16.
Matthew Revis and James Wharton, both of whom got over 200 runs last season in the competition, are also worth backing.
In the bowling department, Benjamin Cliff delivered a match-winning spell in the opener, taking 5 for 46 from his 8.3 overs. Matthew Revis and George Hill also picked up two wickets each, while Jack White delivered an incredibly economical spell of 1-21 from 10 overs. The depth and variety of this attack for these conditions make them a threat to Northamptonshire.

Northamptonshire may have lost more players to The Hundred this year than ever before, but they’ve still put together a strong squad that did well in the Vitality Blast. They now have a boost in the form of Indian leg-spinner Yuzvendra Chahal, who has been picking wickets regularly in the County Championship, and Tim Robinson, who recently featured in New Zealand’s white-ball series in Zimbabwe.
Their opening fixture in the One-Day Cup was called off due to rain, which should give them extra motivation to start off with a win here.
The batting line-up features opener Prithvi Shaw, who topped their run charts last season with 343 runs from eight innings, averaging 43 with a strike rate of 118. His presence at the top adds much-needed experience and intent.
George Bartlett and Saif Zaib round out the top order, both having crossed 230 runs in last season’s campaign. They’ll be expected to chip in again with steady knocks.
With the ball, Justin Broad is likely to be trusted with getting wickets at regular intervals. He led their bowling numbers last time, picking up 13 wickets in six matches at an average of 16.30. Alongside him, Saif Zaib, Ben Sanderson, and Yuzvendra Chahal offer dependable options who can keep things tight and create chances.

Batters usually enjoy themselves at the County Ground in Northampton, where the ball comes on nicely under clear skies. Early movement can trouble openers for a few overs, but things settle quickly. Spinners often get some grip in the middle overs, especially if the surface is dry.

Scores around 270–290 are common at the County Ground in Northampton. Last season, the highest total posted at the venue in the One-Day Cup was Northamptonshire’s 295-6 versus Worcestershire. For this game, both teams will be eyeing a score of around 275-odd to give themselves a solid chance.
Teams batting first usually find more success in Northampton, and with this being the opening game of the season, the pitch should be good for scoring. The captain winning the toss will likely want to make the most of that.
There’s plenty at stake for Northamptonshire as they face Yorkshire in this one. The last four games between these sides have all gone Yorkshire’s way, and they come into this match riding momentum from a strong result. Recent form and head-to-head record tilt things in Yorkshire’s favor. That said, anything above 280 in the first innings could give the batting side a genuine chance for victory.
Back Yorkshire as the winners of this match.
