Vitality Blast 2024 Cricket Match Prediction | South Group | Glamorgan vs Sussex Sharks – Let’s see who will win the match. | June 02

Glamorgan vs Sussex Sharks Match Analysis

At Sophia Gardens in Cardiff, Glamorgan will play Sussex Sharks in the South Group of the 2024 Vitality Blast. On Sunday, June 2, 2024, at 14:30 local time, the game begins.

It’s never easy to play Surrey, as Glamorgan found out when they failed to launch their 2024 T20 Blast into a winning start at home on Friday. However, advantages are going into this game: the bowling attack claimed eight wickets, while three batsmen scored between 40 and 58.

On Friday night in Hove, Sussex Sharks defeated Gloucestershire by three wickets despite a thrilling contest that was nearly decided by a bye on the last ball. While it’s never ideal to depend on the lower order to win a game with the bat, Tymal Mills’ team will feel a lot more confident after a close triumph.

Glamorgan vs Sussex Sharks Team Preview & Squads

Glamorgan

Colin Ingram and Marnus Labuschagne, two veteran batsmen, both scored half-centuries against Surrey, and we anticipate both will make major contributions going forward. Despite their single-figure scores on Friday, Sam Northeast and Kiran Carlson will be watched closely by the Sussex bowlers.

Even though they lost in the end, Glamorgan’s bowling attack claimed at least one wicket on Friday, so the team should feel confident going into their return to Sophia Gardens for this game. Dan Douthwaite stood out in particular.

Sussex Sharks

Runs by Daniel Hughes (37), Fynn Hudson-Prentice (47), John Simpson (36), and Danny Lamb (23) were critical as the team needed 168 to win. However, Nathan McAndrew and Jack Carson sealed the deal, and the Sharks will be hoping for more from James Coles, Oli Carter, and Tom Alsop in the top four.

James Coles, Danny Lamb, and Ollie Robinson were all without a wicket against Gloucestershire, but this bowling attack has plenty of other possibilities to take wickets. Against Glamorgan, Tymal Mills, the captain, should be the primary threat with the ball while Jack Carson and Nathan McAndrew will be threatening all game long.

Glamorgan vs Sussex Sharks outfield report

Sophia Gardens, Cardiff

As the surface will support the faster bowlers early in the first two sessions of the play and ease off as the match continues, both teams will aim to bowl first in this encounter.

The weather in Cardiff will be sunny and bright, with sporadic showers possible during the game. 

With some movement with the new ball, Cardiff is a good conventional pitch where hitters will find it easier to score runs as the game goes on. In the contest, we anticipate scoring between 170 and 180 runs.
