Surrey CCC vs Sussex Sharks Preview

• Will Jacks has two half-centuries in the 2022 Vitality Blast, and we anticipate him to lead Surrey to victory over Sussex Sharks.
• Sam Curran has taken 9 wickets in his last two Blast games at the Kia Oval, demonstrating his versatility across all formats. As Surrey’s top wicket taker in this match, he is highly worth backing. 
• Obed McCoy has an incredible streak of taking wickets in successive games, dating back to the IPL. We think he’ll be the top wicket-taker for Sussex Sharks vs Surrey.

 

In the 2022 Vitality Blast, Surrey will face Sussex Sharks. On Wednesday, June 8th, the game will begin at 18:30 local time at The Kia Oval in London.

This season of the Vitality Blast has been a blast for Surrey. With four victories and nine points, they lead the South Group with a net run rate of +1.793. So far in the tournament, they have gone undefeated.

Sussex is currently in third place on the standings, with three victories and three losses for a total of eight points. While they are in good shape, they must increase their net run rate of -0.090, which may come back to haunt them later.

Surrey CCC Team News & Probable Playing XIs

Aside from Curran, Surrey’s opener Will Jacks is someone to keep an eye on in this game (140 runs at 148.93). So far, Jason Roy has appeared out of touch, but all he needs is one good knock to get going. Jamie Overton, who has been striking it at 205, has also looked decent down the order. Surrey also has the ever-reliable Sunil Narine in their ranks, who has an incredible economy rate of 4.75 in five games. In the middle, the off-four spinner’s overs will be key. Reece Topley, a left-arm bowler, has also been in excellent form (8 wickets at 7.64).

Surrey CCC are the favourites to win this match

 

Surrey has won both of the last two completed meetings between Surrey and Sussex. They have appeared to be the most balanced team in their group, and they will begin as favourites in this encounter. Sussex has a few match-winners in its ranks, but their current form may be too much for them to handle. This match should be won by Surrey.
