A win – our fourth in five games – could take us top of the table ahead of Middlesex.

The England all-rounder, who is about to begin a month with the Northern Superchargers in the Hundred, is currently running laps of the outfield in the mid-innings break.

Preview: Yorkshire Women v Middlesex, MBODC

From a warm and sunny Headingley.

This is match number five of nine in the group stage of the Metro Bank One-Day Cup.

Yorkshire are second having won three from four so far, Middlesex top with four wins from four.

A top-four finish is the aim for semi-final qualification.

As much as Yorkshire can advance their 50-over cause today, they can also gain some instant revenge for last week’s Vitality Blast final defeat against Middlesex at Northampton.

Yorkshire have signed Hannah Rainey, the Scottish seamer, on loan for the remainder of the season ahead of a two-year contract. But she hasn’t been named in Rich Pyrah’s squad for this fixture.

You can read our preview for the match via the link above. It does include a line about Rainey being in line to debut, but our preview was published before the squad was released.

Enjoy the day.
