ESS vs MDX Betting Tips
- Essex Eagles first match of their T20 Blast title defence sees them take on Middlesex at Chelmsford.
- With Simon Harmer, Cameron Delport and Dan Lawrence all in their 17-man squad, it is a strong Essex squad set for the opening game.
- That is in stark contrast to Middlesex, who are without their overseas players and also have England captain Eoin Morgan unavailable due to his international commitments.

Essex Eagles vs Middlesex 2020 Vitality T20 Blast
Defending champions Essex Eagles start their Vitality T20 Blast title defence when they take on Middlesex in the opening day of action in the South Group. The match takes place at the County Cricket Ground, Chelmsford, on August 27 and the live action starts at 18:30 local time.
The Eagles beat Worcestershire Rapids in last season’s final and captain Simon Harmer – so key to that success – will lead the team again in this year’s tournament. Essex have named a 17-man squad for the match, but that does include Kolpak stars Harmer and Cameron Delport, as well as Dan Lawrence.
Middlesex will be without England captain Eoin Morgan for the tournament, with Steven Finn set to lead them instead. With their overseas players unavailable too, Middlesex go into the tournament lacking the firepower they have previous boasted up the batting order. There could be up to four Middlesex T20 debutants.
Essex Predicted Playing 11
Varun Chopra, Cameron Delport, Tom Westley, Ryan Ten Doeschate, Dan Lawrence, Adam Wheater(WK), Paul Salter, Simon Harmer(C), Jamie Porter, Shane Snater, Sam Cook
Middlesex Predicted Playing 11

🏆 Essex vs Middlesex Prediction
No team has ever won back-to-back titles in the T20 Blast but Essex will still expect to get their title defence off to a winning start. Ravi Bopara has moved on from last season, but other key players remain from last season’s victory. For Middlesex, by contrast, they have lost the core of the team that reached the quarter-finals in 2019 and this could be a tough start to the tournament.
