Team overview
Yorkshire at a glance
Yorkshire County Cricket Club was founded in 1863 and represents the historic county in England's domestic system. The men's T20 team now competes simply as Yorkshire; older records may use the Yorkshire Vikings name.
Yorkshire won seven of 12 North Group matches in 2026, lost four and tied with Derbyshire at 215 apiece. Their 30 points secured second place and a home quarter-final at Headingley.
Somerset recovered from 82/8 to chase 162 in the quarter-final, winning by two wickets with one ball left. That ended Yorkshire's campaign at 13 matches: seven wins, five losses and one tie.
Adam Lyth led the batting with 473 runs at a strike rate of 177.82, including 131 not out against Leicestershire. Hassan Ali took a team-high 27 wickets at 13.07, while AJ Tye combined 153 lower-order runs at 188.89 with 21 wickets.
The same men's county squad also plays the County Championship and One-Day Cup. Yorkshire Women and the Headingley-based Hundred franchise SunRisers Leeds are separate teams with separate squads and results, so none of those records is merged here.
