LAN vs SUR Match Toss Prediction
In the six matches played in Manchester in T20 Blast, teams batting first have won four matches while scores have been chased just twice. Going by the history, the captain winning the toss might want to bat first.
LAN vs SUR Pitch Report
In the last match played at Old Trafford, Nottingham could only score 138-7. In the earlier game between Lancashire and Derbyshire, Lancashire scored 177 and defended the total easily. The scores are not as big as some other venues of the tournament have produced, showing that the wicket is not very easy to bat. The ball does stop in the pitch and the bounce is not consistent too.
Manchester Weather Report
There is some rain predicted on the match day and we could be in for a shorter game. If rain is around, the captain might opt to chase as teams chasing get an advantage due to the D/L method.

Lancashire Team News & Playing 11
LAN Team News
Lancashire have one of the best batting lineups in the tournament, with players like Jos Buttler, Liam Livingstone, Phil Salt, and Daryl Mitchell in the team. The team has been in good form, winning five and losing just one in the last seven games. They are likely to play the same team.
LAN Key Players
- Phil Salt - Phil Salt had a good outing in the last game as he scored 74 runs in 51 balls. Salt would like to ride on the momentum and play another good innings in a must-win quarter-final against Surrey.
- Jos Buttler – Runs or no runs, Jos Buttler in a T20 game is always a match-winner. Buttler has had an average tournament so far but he did play an 83-run knock against Derbyshire not so long ago. Buttler will be eyeing a decent show in this crunch game.
- Daryl Mitchell - Mitchell has not done much in the tournament but he brings a lot to the table. He bats in the middle order and is responsible for giving the team a strong finish. He also bowls 3-4 overs and is used as a partnership breaker. If Mitchell has a good day, Lancashire’s chances of a win will increase significantly.
LAN Team Form
Lancashire has been in great form in the recent few games, winning five and losing just one in the last seven matches.

SUR Team News
Surrey have lost four of the last five games but any change in the playing 11 in the must-win quarterfinal looks unlikely. All players are available for selection and the team should step in with the same playing 11.
SUR Key Players
- Wil Jacks - Will Jacks has been the best batter for Surrey this season. The destructive batter has scored 541 runs in 14 matches for the team.
- Jason Roy - Roy returned to the team against Essex but could only score 28. However, he would be eyeing to make up for the poor show in the last game with a big inning in the quarter-final. An on-song Roy can make a huge difference for Surrey.
- Sunil Narine - Sunil Narine scored 78 runs in the last game and picked up a wicket too. Narine is not the same bowler he used to be but he is still very useful with the ball. He has also his batting abilities this season. Narine has taken 19 wickets in Vitality T20 Blast 2023.
