Essex are favorites to win
Sussex will take on Essex at the County Ground, Hove. This T20 match gets underway at 18:30 local time on Thursday 1st June.
There was a narrow and impressive victory for Sussex against Surrey at The Oval on Sunday as the Sharks put their opening game defeat to Somerset behind them. However, this contest against Essex will be another tough fixture.
Keeper-batter Michael Burgess has impressed with the Sharks after signing on loan for this tournament and he has made useful contributions with the bat in each of the two matches. Tom Alsop hit 51 not out against Surrey and Ravi Bopara will also be a key batter for this game.
England international left-arm fast bowler Tymal Mills has been Sussex’ best bowler so far in the competition and already has five wickets to his name. Ravi Bopara used all of his experience to take 3-18 from three overs in the win over Surrey.
Sussex have had a very tough start to the tournament playing against some of the best teams. However, they were very impressive against Surrey.
After playing Ireland in a four-day match, Essex were the last team to get their 2023 T20 Blast campaign underway but still did so with a win against Gloucestershire in Chelmsford on Tuesday. The Eagles got over the line with 5 balls remaining to win by 3 wickets.
Robin Das top scored in the victory over Gloucestershire with 69 runs from 33 balls in an innings which included 11 fours and two sixes. There were also useful contributions from opener Feroze Khushi who hit 34 runs from 14 balls and Tom Westley who made an unbeaten 31 from 23 balls.
It was a strong bowling performance from Essex in their opening match with only Ben Allison and Shane Snater going wicketless. Paul Walter and Daniel Sams both took two wickets each with Simon Harmer, Sam Cook and Matt Critchley chipping in with one each.
Considering it was their first T20 match of the season, Essex will have been pleased just to get the win over Gloucestershire but they will need to be better with bat and ball in this match.
This Vitality T20 Blast game will be played at the County Ground, Hove. This is a good batting wicket with pace also for the quick bowlers and we expect to see a par score of over 180.

After beating the previously undefeated Surrey in their last game, plenty of observers will expect Sussex to get an easy win in this match. However, we think Essex will be one of the top teams in the South Group this year and we are backing them to win this fixture in Hove.
