- Fixture: Birmingham Bears vs Yorkshire
- Format: T20 Blast (North Group)
- Venue: Edgbaston, Birmingham, England
- Date: 6th June, 2025
📅 Match Preview
Birmingham Bears: The season is still young, but so far the signs haven’t been good for Alex Davies’ team.
Birmingham have lost both their matches to date. The first was a 7 wicket thrashing from Notts. The Bears followed that with a 3 wicket loss to Durham.
Birmingham’s top three haven’t got going yet this season, and it’s causing them huge problems.
Yorkshire haven’t been much better. The Whites Roeses lost their opening match to Northants by 13 runs, and they followed that up with a heavy 60 run (DLS) defeat at the hands of Worcester last Sunday.
Like the Bears, Yorkshire’s top three haven’t produced the goods yet this season.
Head‑to‑Head Insight:
Matches have been tight: two wins each in their last four T20 meetings. In their most recent clash at Edgbaston (June 2024), Yorkshire outplayed the Bears to clinch victory.

🎯 Match Prediction
Pick: Yorkshire to win (Odds ~6/4)
They’ve outscored Birmingham in recent encounters, and their all‑round bowling depth better suits the wet conditions expected at Edgbaston today.
🎲 Top Betting Tips
- Yorkshire to win @ 6/4
Both teams are struggling and seeking their first wins. The Bears are too short to back at 8/15, so take the better value on Yorkshire. - Dawid Malan to score over 22.5+ runs @ ~10/11
The Yorkshire captain is due a score. We can see him punishing a below-par Bears’ attack. - Bowler – Will Sutherland top Yorkshire wicket-taker @ ~15/4
The Aussie has struggled so far this season, but with bowler friendly conditions and an out-of-form Birmingham side, today could be Sutherland’s day.
✅ Final Verdict
Yorkshire holds the edge due to better batting rhythm and balanced attack, while Birmingham’s inconsistent top order makes them vulnerable. A moderate-score thriller is brewing, and backing Yorkshire could be the shrewd play.
