Glamorgan will be locking horns with Surrey in the South group of T20 Blast 2022 at the Sophia Gardens in Cardiff on June 5. Surrey would be hoping to do the double over Glamorgan having got the better of them by four wickets in the reverse fixture clash. Surrey have been in outstanding form this season and are yet to taste defeat. They occupy the top spot, having won all of their four matches with eight points to their tally. In their last fixture, they registered a 32-run win over Kent.
Glamorgan, on the other hand, have blown hot and cold in this edition of the T20 Blast. They currently occupy the seventh position in the standings with two victories and three losses and four points to their tally. More importantly, Glamorgan would be desperate to improve their negative net run rate which reads -0.256.
Glamorgan suffered a heavy defeat at the hands of Somerset in their previous encounter by nine wickets and 35 balls to spare and they need to do a lot of work in order to make amends for this humiliating loss.

Pitch Report
The track at the Sophia Gardens produced a first innings score of 113 in its only match in this year’s Blast so far, but with a star-studded batting line-up on both sides, things could change on this occasion and the surface is expected to be grassy and swing-producing. Hence, the batters would struggle upfront with the pacers asking some tough questions with the new ball. Therefore, the captain winning the toss would be hoping to bowl first.
Probable Playing XI:
Surrey
Jason Roy, Will Jacks, Sam Curran, Laurie Evans, Jamie Overton, Kieron Pollard, Jamie Smith (wk), Chris Jordan (c), Sunil Narine, Daniel Worrall, Reece Topley
Glamorgan
David Lloyd (c), Sam Northeast, Marnus Labuschagne, Kiran Carlson, Chris Cooke (wk), Andrew Salter, Daniel Douthwaite, Michael Neser, James Weighell, Prem Sisodiya, Michael Hogan.
Probable Top Performers
Probable best batter of the match
Sam Curran:
Sam Curran was Surrey’s main player with the bat as he scored 43 runs from 34 deliveries in the last game against Kent. Even though the youngster missed out on a well-deserved half-century, his vital knock was good enough for the team as they went on to post a match-winning total of 159/6.
Probable best bowler of the match
Reece Topley:
Reece Topley proved to be the game-changer for Surrey with the ball in hand as he delivered a severe blow to Kent’s chances of registering the first win of the season with his outstanding bowling performances. Topley finished his incredible spell with figures of 3/24 from his four overs at an economy rate of exactly six. He would be expected to bowl yet another impactful spell in the upcoming fixture.
