The ECB Women's One-Day Cup 2026 moves into a crucial phase as league leaders The Blaze Women take on Yorkshire Women.
The Blaze currently sit at the top of the points table with 8 wins and 2 defeats from 10 matches, collecting 36 points with a net run rate of +0.482. Despite losing their previous match, they remain in a strong position to secure a place in the knockout stages.
Yorkshire Women are seventh in the standings with 3 wins and 5 defeats from 9 matches. They have collected 16 points with a net run rate of +0.008 and need victories in their remaining matches to stay alive in the playoff race.
The recent form also favours The Blaze, who have won four of their last five matches, while Yorkshire's last five results read one win, three defeats, and one tied match.
The head-to-head record between the two teams is evenly balanced. They have met twice in the Women's One-Day Cup, with both sides winning one match each. Their most recent meeting came on 18 April 2026 when Yorkshire Women defeated The Blaze Women by 70 runs.
With one team fighting for the top spot and the other battling to keep their playoff hopes alive, this promises to be an important contest.

The Blaze Women head into this match after suffering a 28-run defeat against Lancashire Women in their previous outing. Chasing 240 for victory, The Blaze were bowled out for 211 in 47.1 overs.
Tammy Beaumont once again led the batting effort with a well-made 64, while Marie Kelly contributed 32 and Prisha Thanawala added 39. However, regular wickets throughout the chase prevented them from building the partnerships needed to reach the target.
Earlier, the bowling attack performed reasonably well to restrict Lancashire Women to 239. Charli Knott and Lucy Higham picked up two wickets each, while Georgia Elwiss also claimed two wickets. Emma Jones, Maria Andrews, and Charley Phillips chipped in with one wicket apiece.
Despite the defeat, The Blaze remain the most consistent side in the tournament and will be confident of bouncing back quickly.

Yorkshire Women will enter this match with confidence after registering a comfortable six-wicket victory over Durham Women in their previous outing. The bowling attack set up the win by dismissing Durham for just 193 runs. Sarah Glenn starred with excellent figures of 3 wickets, while Jess Jonassen produced a brilliant spell of 2/18 in 10 overs.
Ines Blackwell also claimed 2 wickets, while Claudie Cooper and Maddie Ward chipped in with one wicket each. In reply, Yorkshire chased down the target with 15 balls to spare, finishing on 194/4 in 47.3 overs.
Captain Lauren Winfield-Hill anchored the innings with a composed 65, while Erin Thomas played a superb knock of 67. Jess Jonassen added 16 runs, while Alice Clarke and Maddie Ward remained unbeaten to complete the chase.
That victory was an important boost for Yorkshire after a difficult run of results and keeps their hopes of climbing the table alive. If their experienced players can deliver again, they have the quality to challenge the league leaders.

Queen's Park offers a balanced surface for both batters and bowlers. The average first-innings score at this venue is around 204 runs.

The ground also has relatively short boundaries, helping batters score quickly.
Score Prediction
If The Blaze Women Bat 1st: 255-275 runs
If Yorkshire Women Bat 1st: 220-240 runs
The captain winning the toss is likely to choose to bowl first. Out of the 3 Women's One-Day Cup matches played at this venue, teams winning the toss have opted to bowl first 2 times, while choosing to bat first only one time. The pitch can offer some help to seamers early in the innings, while batting generally becomes easier later in the day, making chasing a preferred option.
Toss Prediction: Yorkshire Women to win the toss.
Yorkshire Women will take confidence from their convincing win over Durham Women and the fact that they have already beaten The Blaze once this season. Their experienced players looked in excellent touch in the previous match and the victory should provide valuable momentum heading into this contest.
However, The Blaze remain the strongest and most consistent side in the competition. They continue to sit comfortably at the top of the points table and have performed far better across the season as a whole.
Yorkshire certainly have the quality to make this a competitive contest, but based on overall form, squad depth, and their position at the top of the standings, The Blaze Women hold a slight edge.
