Surrey are favorites to win
Surrey host Middlesex at the Kia Oval in South London on Friday evening in the 2022 Vitality Blast. The hosts are top of the South Group with six wins and one no-result from their seven fixtures in the tournament. Middlesex are in seventh place with six points from eight games. Read on as we preview this South Group game. The match begins at 18:30 local time.
Surrey are unbeaten in all formats so far this season and have been very impressive in this competition. They beat Middlesex by 20 runs in their last game in the T20 Blast but will be without some key players.
Middlesex have lost to Essex Eagles, Surrey, Hampshire Hawks, Kent Spitfires and Sussex Sharks in their last five games in the tournament. They will need to raise their level of performance to be competitive in this match.
TV channels: This match will be shown live on Sky Sports in the UK.
Live Streaming: Fans can stream the match on the Fan Code app; the ECB website and app; and SkyGo.
All three games have seen the toss winning captain choose to field first in the T20 Blast so far this season. We are backing both teams to want to bat second ahead of this game.
Pace bowlers have had the most success at the Kia Oval in this competition over the years. We expect the quicks to enjoy the surface with a par score around 200.
Hot and sunny in South London. The game will begin in blazing sunshine and a temperature above 30 degrees.

With England beginning their three-match ODI tour of the Netherlands earlier in the day, there will be changes to Surrey’s XI from their last game in this competition. Sam Curran, Jason Roy and Reece Topley will all be on international duty and we expect Rory Burns, Jordan Clark and Dan Moriarty to come in.
Surrey are the form side across all formats in county cricket this season. Although they are missing some big name, they have plenty of more than able replacements waiting in the wings.
Will Jacks, Rory Burns, Jordan Clark, Laurie Evans, Kieron Pollard, Jamie Overton, Sunil Narine, Chris Jordan (c), Jamie Smith (wk), Daniel Worrall, Dan Moriarty
England captain Eoin Morgan will be in the Netherlands and is the only Middlesex player unavailable for this fixture. Morgan missed Middlesex’s last game in the competition and we expect to see them keep a similar XI with Toby Roland-Jones returning to the team.
Middlesex have lost their last six games in all competitions and you have to go back to May 29 to find their last victory, a 4 wicket win over Glamorgan.
Steve Eskinazi (c), Max Holden, Joe Cracknell, Jack Davies, John Simpson (wk), Luke Hollman, Martin Andersson, Chris Green, Toby Roland-Jones, Tom Helm, Jason Behrendorff
Surrey have beaten Middlesex in each of the last four games in the T20 Blast with their last defeat coming in August 2019.

The bookies are following the form guide and have Surrey as big favourites ahead of this game.
Although two of Surrey’s normal top three will be absent, there is still plenty of batting firepower in their line-up.
Will Jacks, Laurie Evans and Kieron Pollard are our batting recommendations for Surrey. Pollard has scored 56 half-centuries in domestic T20 cricket.
Steve Eskinazi, Joe Cracknell and Max Holden are our batting tips for Middlesex. Cracknell hit 68 runs against Sussex earlier in the competition.
For Surrey, Chris Jordan, Sunil Narine and Daniel Moriarty are our bowling tips. Narine took 2-28 the last time these two sides met earlier this month
For Middlesex, Toby Roland-Jones, Martin Andersson and Chris Green are our bowling tips. Green has only gone wicketless in one of the last five T20 Blast games.
You will struggle to find two teams with more contrasting form than Surrey and Middlesex going head to head in any sport this weekend. Middlesex’s great hope is that Surrey will struggle without their England white ball internationals but we do not see that making a big enough difference. We are predicting a home victory.
