YORK will host its first ever Vitality T20 Blast fixture next summer.

Yorkshire’s clash with Durham will be played at Clifton Park on June 15 next year.

The club is no stranger to hosting county matches, including Metro Bank One Day Cup fixtures against Sussex and Gloucestershire and Northern Diamonds’ Rachael Heyhoe Flint Trophy match against Sunrisers earlier this year.

With demand for the fixture expected to be sky-high, it will be all-ticket with no hospitality as the club look to maximise capacity. Tickets are available directly from the Yorkshire CCC website next week.

18 teams compete in the T20 blast, divided into two groups of nine. Each team plays six teams in their group twice and two teams once, with the top four teams from each group qualifying for the quarter-finals and the four winners progressing to Finals Day.

Yorkshire will hope to improve on their seventh-placed finish in this year’s competition and begin their T20 campaign against Northants Steelbacks on May 30.
