Sussex Sharks vs Kent Spitfires Team Preview

Sussex Sharks

Despite losing badly in the other of their last three games, they have won two of their last three games and enter this game six points behind Hampshire Hawks in fourth position. Only three of the Sharks’ games in the Vitality T20 Blast 2023 have been won.

Sussex’s impressive batting effort on Friday, which saw them record 183-6, was the reason for their unexpected victory over Hampshire Hawks. Oli Carter led the way with 64 runs off 33 balls, and Ravi Bopara added 30 runs of value.

Kent Spitfires

Kent has recently been playing well, which gives them hope that they can move up in the South Group and perhaps even get into the top four by the end of the group stage. They are ranked sixth going into this game.

In addition to Kent’s excellent bowling performance on Saturday, their batting performance was also strong. The Spitfires needed to score 138 runs in order to win, but they only lost 3 wickets in the process. With 18 balls left, they also had 7 wickets in hand.

Surrey CCC vs Glamorgan at a Glance

  • This year, Surrey’s go-to bowler has been Sunil Narine, so keep an eye out for him.
  • Colin Ingrams (Achilles), David Lloyd (hamstring), Eddie Byrom (hip), and Dan Douthwaite (side strain) are among the injured players for Glamorgan this season.
  • In the T20 Blast, Surrey’s chase of 221 against Middlesex was the highest total ever recorded at the Kennington Oval.

Surrey CCC vs Glamorgan Team Preview

Surrey CCC

Surrey suffered a severe loss against Hampshire Hawks on Sunday afternoon following a string of successful matches. They were defeated by 9 wickets with 34 balls remaining. The defeat was severe enough for Surrey to lose enough runs to fall from first place in the South Group.   

   

It was a disappointing performance for Surrey’s top order on Sunday with Will Jacks departing for a 4-ball duck and fellow opener Laurie Evans scoring only 1 run from the same amount of deliveries. Only lower-order runs from Jamie Overton and Tom Curran contributed to the 124 all-out total after Sam Curran, Jamie Smith, and Sean Abbott all produced single-digit scores.

Glamorgan

The two points Glamorgan earned after their 32-run victory against Gloucestershire on Sunday put them in fifth place, just two points behind Hampshire Hawks in fourth but with a game left to play. When Glamorgan played Surrey previously in the Vitality T20 Blast 2023, they were defeated by 65 runs.    

However, contributions from Billy Root (36 runs from 24 balls), Sam Northeast (60* runs from 48 balls), Chris Cooke (28 runs from 17 balls), and Timm van der Gugten (38 runs from 19 balls) helped Glamorgan reach a very respectable total after losing Kiran Carlson and Prem Sisodiya early in their previous game.

Two of the three Blast games played at the Kennington Oval this season were victories for the pursuing team. So, it is expected that the team who wins the toss would bowl first.

It is anticipated that there will be some clouds, a few showers, and a strong thunderstorm in London during the game.

Even though there will also be some turn for the spinners, another pitch with pace and bounce is to be anticipated.

  • Birmingham Bears has 12 points from 9 games and has lately won 2 straight games.
  • Durham has nine points from ten games and hasn’t won any of their last four games (three losses and a draw).
  • Durham has a record of 2 wins, 2 defeats, and a draw at this location this year.

Durham Cricket vs Birmingham Bears Team Preview

Durham Cricket

Durham barely lost to Lancashire Lightning on Sunday after tying with Derbyshire Falcons on Friday. Durham’s aim was trimmed due to bad weather to 158 runs, but despite scoring 150-3 in Manchester, they fell eight runs short.     

 

The Durham openers each scored a half-century, but they probably would have preferred to have done so in their last game at a faster run rate. In his 78 from 57 balls, captain Alex Lees, who was in the England Test team at this time last year, smashed 11 boundaries.

Birmingham Bears

After having a rough start to the month with losses to the Notts Outlaws and Derbyshire Falcons (twice), Birmingham Bears has recovered with wins over the Northamptonshire Steelbacks and Worcestershire Rapids. The top of the leaderboard is the Bears.    

Even though Sam Hain, who was in fine form, was absent on Friday, Birmingham Bears still managed to score 196-5, with contributions from Dan Mousley (49 not out), Chris Benjamin (34), Jacob Bethell (32 not out), Alex Davies (28), and Rob Yates (27) among others. The Bears’ batting order is lengthy now.

With four victories and a tie so far this season, chasing teams have never lost at Chester-le-Street, so we anticipate both captains to bowl first at this location if they win the toss.

Weather predictions the evening will be partly sunny, and the night will be mostly cloudy. Mostly bright with occasional cloud cover and a few clouds into the afternoon.

We anticipate a par score to be between 155 and 160 because it is not one of the greatest batting surfaces in the game.

Gloucestershire vs Hampshire Hawks at a glance

  • We predict international bowler David Payne to lead Gloucestershire in wickets on Tuesday.
  • We believe that the Australian Nathan Ellis will be the Hampshire Hawks’ leading wicket-taker in this game after taking 3-21 on Sunday.
  • James Vince has been in outstanding T20 form for a very long time, so we suggest betting on him to take the most wickets for the Hampshire Hawks in this match.

Gloucestershire vs Hampshire Hawks Team Preview

Gloucestershire

In this encounter on Tuesday night, the hosts will be attempting to avoid their fourth straight loss in the tournament. On Sunday, Glamorgan defeated Gloucestershire by 32 runs at Cardiff, defeating them once more. As a result, Gloucestershire dropped to 7th place in the South Group.

In the first innings of the match against Glamorgan, Grant Roelofsen scored 33 runs off just 24 balls, ending the current hot streak of skipper Miles Hammond, who only scored 9 runs off 11 balls. Also in excellent form, left-arm fast bowler Matt Taylor added two more dismissals to his total on Sunday.

Hampshire Hawks

The Hampshire Hawks crushed Surrey by 9 wickets with 34 balls left at The Oval on Sunday afternoon. It was a fantastic performance and outcome. The Hawks are in fourth place in the South Group, two points behind the three clubs in front of them.

The victory over Surrey was not just impressively decisive; it also marked Hampshire Hawks’ first win following two losses in a row. Only Dawid Malan is ahead of Captain Vince in the list of competition run scorers with 476 runs hit. Despite the fact that the batsmen improved against Surrey in the second innings, the victory was made possible by outstanding bowling from Chris Wood, John Turner, and Nathan Ellis, who each took three wickets.

  • The Outlaws’ assault is powerful thanks to the experience of bowlers Shaheen Afridi and Steven Mullaney.

Leicestershire Foxes vs Notts Outlaws Team Preview

Leicestershire Foxes

On Sunday, Leicestershire Foxes suffered yet another loss when they were defeated by Worcestershire Rapids by 6 wickets with 22 balls remaining. The Foxes had only two victories in their first 10 games of the Vitality T20 Blast 2023, placing them last in the North Group.

In Leicestershire’s final score of 112 all out in 18.2 overs, only wicketkeeper-batsman Peter Handscomb, skipper Colin Ackermann, and Wiann Mulder had double-figure scorers. Callum Parkinson and Reham Ahmed, two spinners, had results of 2-25 and 1-25, respectively.

Notts Outlaws

Nottinghamshire suffered a shocking 78-run loss to Northamptonshire Steelbacks on Sunday after defeating Derbyshire Falcons, Durham, Lancashire Lightning, and Birmingham Bears in their previous four games. They remain in third place in the North Group.

Despite their disappointing performances in the most recent game, Joe Clarke, Alex Hales, and Colin Munro have all been in strong form throughout the competition. The only two bowlers for Nottinghamshire to go without a wicket against the Northamptonshire Steelbacks as they were held to a score of 177-5 were Matthew Montgomery and Steven Mullaney.

Yorkshire Vikings

After an astonishing run of six straight triumphs, Yorkshire was ultimately defeated on Sunday when Derbyshire Falcons outscored them by 144 runs to hand them their first loss. So far in the competition, they have won six games and lost four.

Yorkshire Vikings enter this game coming off a crushing loss on Sunday, although they were in excellent form prior to that game.

Ricardo Vasconcelos, the opener, led the way with 51 runs off 44 balls against the Notts Outlaws, but no other player scored more than 26.

Worcestershire Rapids vs Lancashire Lightning Team Preview

Worcestershire Rapids

The Rapids, who returned to winning ways on Sunday, are only two points behind all of the clubs in first through fourth place going into this game where they are currently in fifth. The Rapids won by six wickets on Sunday with 21 balls to spare, and they now have a good chance of finishing in the top four of the North Group.

With 51 runs from 39 balls, Worcestershire captain Brett D’Oliveira led the team’s scoring against Leicestershire Foxes. On Sunday, all six of Worcestershire’s bowlers recorded wickets, including Usama Mir, a 27-year-old international leg-spinner for Pakistan.

 

Lancashire Lightning

Lancashire Lightning enters this match in second place in the North Group, only behind Birmingham Bears, after defeating Durham by 7 runs (DLS) on Sunday. There are four teams in the North Group with 12 points. The cricket being played by Lightning Lightning right now is fantastic.

 

In Lancashire’s final game, Daryl Mitchell, a New Zealand international, was the team’s best batter, scoring 60 runs off just 39 balls. Only Luke Wells and Daryl Mitchell took a wicket for Lancashire against Durham, but they were also the only two bowlers to finish their allotted number of overs before it started to rain.
