DER vs LEI Match Prediction : T20 Blast 2025 – Who Will Win Today’s Match Between DER vs LEI?

Derbyshire and Leicestershire square off at Edgbaston in a North Group encounter where both teams are searching for consistency. Derbyshire enter this match after a morale-boosting 46-run win over Nottinghamshire, where Aneurin Donald’s explosive 73 and Brooke Guest’s late flourish powered them to 199/5. The bowling unit, led by captain Samit Patel (3/14) and AM Ghazanfar (2/26), executed their plans well to restrict Notts to 153. However, Derbyshire’s overall campaign has been disappointing, sitting at the bottom with just one win in six matches, plagued by inconsistency in both batting and bowling throughout the season.

Leicestershire, meanwhile, have had a better start to their campaign but are coming off a heavy 106-run defeat against Yorkshire. Their batting completely capitulated while chasing 214, managing only 107, with no batter scoring beyond Logan van Beek's 26. Leicestershire's bowling, outside of van Beek (3/47) and Roman Walker (2/38), struggled to contain a dominant Yorkshire batting lineup. Nevertheless, they remain mid-table with 3 wins from 5 and have generally looked more balanced across departments than Derbyshire.

A key battle will be between Derbyshire's top-order firepower, led by Aneurin Donald, and Leicestershire’s middle-over spin options like Dom Bess. Derbyshire will need their bowling trio of Patel, Ghazanfar, and Patrick Brown to deliver once again if they are to contain Leicestershire's experienced top-order of Masood, Kimber, and Patel.

Conditions at Edgbaston usually favor chasing sides with the surface easing out under lights, but given both teams' recent performances, early runs on the board may prove decisive.

Bet on Leicestershire to win.
