Match Details

Surrey will cross swords with Middlesex in the upcoming South Group clash of the T20 Blast 2021. This match will take place at the Kennington Oval in London on Friday (June 25).

This encounter will start at 11:00 PM IST and will be streamed live on FanCode.

Preview

Surrey have blown hot and cold this season and would like to register an emphatic win in this clash. They started the tournament brilliantly and registered victories in their first three outings. However, they seem to have lost the plot as their next two were washed out due to rain while the Gareth Batty-led side suffered defeats in their following two games. They are currently fourth in the South Group points table.

On the other hand, the situation is even worse for Middlesex. Having lost five of their first six games, Middlesex are reeling at the rock-bottom of the team standings. Performing together as a unit has been a concern for the Steven Finn-led side and they need to rectify this issue in order to go up in the team standings. Notably, the reverse fixture of these two sides saw Surrey registering a comfortable 54-run win.

Captaincy Picks for SUR vs MID

Will Jacks

The Surrey all-rounder has been on a roll this season and would like to put up another impressive show. Will Jacks likes to take on the bowlers from the outset and his tendency to stay at the crease for long makes him an even greater asset. So far, the opener has scored 194 runs in six outings. Not to forget, he has also bowled some economical spells.

Joe Cracknell

Another player who can shine in this contest is Middlesex opener Joe Cracknell. Despite not getting much support from other batsmen, Cracknell played some brilliant knocks this season and won’t mind replicating his heroics. In four innings so far, the swashbuckler has amassed 177 runs at a staggering strike rate of 155.26.
