MID vs SUR MATCH PREDICTION

Middlesex will be taking on Surrey with full confidence of having beaten Hampshire, despite scoring a par score in the previous match. The current form of their bowlers added with the confidence gained from the last match may prove handy for the Middlesex. Before the start of the tournament they were considered to be one of the hot favourites to qualify from this group, but their earlier performances at the start of the tournament didn’t reflect that. But the fightback they showed in the last match may send shockwaves to the Surrey dressing room. Defending a small total of 142, they bowled out Hampshire for just 123 runs, courtesy of outstanding bowling performance from their bowlers. Tom Helm and Tim Murtagh were lethal in the initial overs, but the star with the ball was captain Steven Finn who returned with excellent figures of 27 for 3 in 4 overs. Finn and co. will be expecting the same from their bowlers coming into this much important clash.

Surrey on the other hand has had a pretty decent tournament so far, having lost the first match they came back strongly to win the next three quite comfortably. They seem to have a new hero for each and every match. The hero of the last match Laurie Evans who impressed with a stunning 52 ball 88. Restricting this in form Surrey batting line-up will be the tough task or Middlesex bowlers. Hashim Amla who disappointed in the last match is expected to make up for it in this match, and if that’s the case there is no way Middlesex bowlers can stop the flow of runs.

Expert free tip– Invest in Middlesex bowlers, especially Tim Murtagh and Steven Finn if you are in for fantasy cricket.
