Venue | Kennington Oval |
It is a match between two teams placed at the opposite end of the points table. Surrey has played sensational cricket and are placed 2nd with 8 wins in 11 matches. They are almost certain to make it to the top four. Meanwhile, Middlesex has been miserable so far, losing all the 10 matches they have played. They are the only team in the tournament that has been eliminated from the playoff race.
Surrey’s recent form has been great, winning five of the six matches they have played and they will be eyeing another win against a depleted Middlesex.
The surface will be a good one to bat but the new ball bowlers might get some help. In the second innings, the ball might also offer some turn.
No rain is expected during the match. The temperature will be around 20 degrees, making it a very pleasant atmosphere to play cricket.

No injuries are reported in any of the camps so far. Surrey has been playing good cricket so there is no need for them to change the winning combination. Middlesex is out of the playoff race so they may give their fringe players a few games.
Surrey by far has been the more dominant team in T20 matches between Surrey and Middlesex

Laurie Evans has enjoyed a good season for Surrey so far. He has scored 396 runs in 11 matches and has played a big role in Surrey’s juggernaut. He scored 40 in the last game.
Sam Curran brings a lot to the table. He is a wicket-taker with the ball and a very handy batter. He scored 59 runs in 22 balls against Glamorgan and also picked one wicket.
Narine is also very similar to Curran. The batter can be used as a pinch hitter when required and his bowling credentials are known to all. Narine has been a match-winner in T20 matches.
Max showed his prowess with the bat when he hit a brilliant 121 in 59 balls against Kent. The team will expect another good show by him which can help them pick their first win of the season.
Martin Andersson had a brilliant game against Essex and removed all three top-order batters of the opposition. He will be eyeing a similar show against a strong Surrey batting lineup.
