Hampshire Men begin their road to Trent Bridge with a trip to Scarborough to face the White Rose<\/p>\n
Monday 20 July 2026
\nYorkshire v Hampshire Men
\nMetro Bank One-Day Cup<\/p>\n
Tuesday 21 July (11am start)<\/p>\n
North Marine Road, Scarborough<\/p>\n
Hampshire begin their men\u2019s Metro Bank One-Day Cup on the road to Scarborough where they will face their opponents from last year\u2019s semi-final, Yorkshire.<\/p>\n
Nick Gubbins has led the side to the knockout stages of the competition in each of the previous four years and finished runners-up twice in 2023 and 2025 \u2013 both games being narrow defeats in the final over.<\/p>\n
The squad is a highly experienced one, especially with the bat. Gubbins himself was the tournament\u2019s leading run-scorer last season when he amassed over 700 runs at an average of 88.<\/p>\n
On the bowling front, expect a barrage of young players, with the likes of former England U19s all-rounder Dom Kelly. He became the most youthful Hampshire player to claim a hat-trick when he dismissed Zak Chappell, Harry Moore, and Daryl Dupavillon on his way to a five-wicket haul against Derbyshire in 2024.<\/p>\n
23-year-old Harry Petrie returns to Hampshire whilst Academy pacer Oli Williams has also signed a short-term deal to add to the club\u2019s already impressive list of young fast bowlers.<\/p>\n
For Yorkshire, the experienced Ben Coad and Jack White will be the leaders of their bowling attack along with up-and-coming all-rounder George Hill.<\/p>\n
Adam Lyth will be a rock at the top of the order, and he scored a century against Hampshire in the County Championship at the start of the year, whilst exciting young opener Finlay Bean and the experienced Big Bash-winning Australian Sam Whiteman are another two players to keep your eye on.<\/p>\n

Captain: Dom Bess<\/p>\n
2025 Position: Semi-finals<\/p>\n
2025 Most Runs: Imam-ul-Haq (688)<\/p>\n
2025 Most Wickets: Matt Milnes (15)<\/p>\n
Why they can win the competition: They bossed Group B last year and lost only two games in the competition, including the semi-final against Hampshire at Scarborough. They\u2019ve been excellent in the Vitality T20 Blast as well this term, really building up that limited overs rhythm.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Player to watch: Will Luxton is a young batter who has shown a significant amount of promise across all formats and will be one of Yorkshire\u2019s key batters in this competition. If he gets going, it will be fun to watch.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Young gun: Academy fast bowler Bradley Sylvester is somewhat of a wildcard. Has just been on England Under 19s duty against South Africa and probably won\u2019t play every game. But the 19-year-old is expected to make his senior debut at some point.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Final thought: The \u2018why they can win the competition\u2019 section provides the glass half full view. The glass half empty view is that they have lost both last season\u2019s leading run-scorer and leading wicket-taker, Imam-ul-Haq and Matt Milnes. Could be a problem.<\/p>\n
