Gloucestershire vs Middlesex Team Preview
Gloucestershire
Gloucestershire has risen to fifth place in the South Group after winning two of their past three games, including a shocking success against Surrey on Friday night. They trail the teams in second and third position by just two points.
Gloucestershire’s batting issues were once again evident as they managed to win the game but with just 2 wickets and 5 balls remaining despite only needing to score 125 runs to defeat Surrey. Each of Grant Roelofsen’s previous three innings has resulted in scores of 20 or more.
Middlesex
Middlesex has lost all five of its games thus far in the tournament, and no team is behind them in the standings, much like Leicestershire Foxes who are at the bottom of the North Group. In their most recent match, Somerset destroyed them by 9 wickets.
In recent T20 Blast seasons, Middlesex’s captain Steve Eskinazi has been the team’s best run scorer. He also spent time with the Perth Scorchers in the previous Big Bash League. This season, only a few other players have consistently scored for Middlesex.
