Ben Cliff starred with five wickets to bowl the Bears out for 137 and Imam-Ul-Haq with 55 in a measured pursuit.<\/p>\n<p>With seven games to go, the White Rose are aiming for a top-three finish in Group B for knockout qualification for the first time since 2021.<\/p>\n<p>If last year is anything to go by, six wins will get you through and five will give you a very, very good chance.<\/p>\n<p>Northamptonshire had their opening game washed out without a ball bowled against Lancashire at Sedbergh on Tuesday. They are captained by Lewis McManus, their wicketkeeper-batter. They have two overseas players at their disposal, the Indian leg-spinner Yuzvendra Chahal and the New Zealand batter Tim Robinson.<\/p>\n<p>Yorkshire\u2019s new-ball seamer Jack White faces the county he left at the end of last season for the first time. White was superb in that Warwickshire win on Tuesday, returning 1-21 from his 10 overs. John Sadler, Yorkshire\u2019s batting coach, is in the same boat.<\/p>\n<p>You can read our preview for this fixture via the link above.<\/p>\n<p>Enjoy the day.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"From Wantage Road, Northampton, where it\u2019s a lovely sunny morning.
