Gloucestershire are favorites to win
Gloucestershire travel to Hove to take on Sussex Sharks on Friday evening in the 2022 Vitality Blast. Sussex Sharks have six points from seven games but have lost their last two matches. Gloucestershire have seven points from seven games and are one point ahead of the Sharks in the table. Read on as we preview this South Group game. The match begins at The County Ground at 19:00 local time.
Sussex Sharks have been beaten by Surrey and Hampshire Hawks in their last two games and will be desperate to return to winning ways in this match. They will need to reset after a 7 wicket defeat on Wednesday.
Gloucestershire suffered their first defeat this month on Wednesday against arch local rivals Somerset. However, they beat Sussex Sharks earlier in the campaign and will back themselves to do it again.
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.
Each toss winning captain has chosen to field first at Hove in the T20 Blast this year. We predict that both captains will want to field first if they win the toss.
The average first innings score in the Blast this season is 161 at Hove. We expect a pitch which offers a good battle between bat and ball with pace bowlers getting some assistance.
Mild but not hot conditions on the south coast of England. The temperature will peak at 16 degrees at the start of the game and we expect it to be humid throughout.
Read on for team previews, betting tips, latest odds, and match prediction for Sussex vs Gloucestershire, Vitality T20 Blast 2022.
There were three changes to the Sharks XI from their defeat against Hampshire Hawks to their away fixture against Surrey on Wednesday. In came Tymal Mills, Tom Alsop and Oli Carter with Ali Orr, Luke Wright and Henry Crocombe dropping out.
Sussex Sharks are looking to avoid their third successive defeat in the 2022 Vitality Blast. They should find Gloucestershire a slightly less imposing opposition than Surrey in their last game.
Tim Seifert (wk), Ravi Bopara (c), Tom Alsop, Delray Rawlins, Fynn Hudson-Prentice, Oli Carter, Harrison Ward, Obed McCoy, Tymal Mills, Archie Lenham, Steven Finn
After beating Glamorgan by 5 wickets on Tuesday evening in Cardiff, Gloucestershire lined up with the same XI ahead of their home derby fixture against Somerset on Wednesday. Although the result went against Gloucestershire, we expect to see consistency in selection again in this match.
Although Thursday’s defeat was Gloucestershire’s first in June, they have won only one of their last three fixtures in the T20 Blast 2022.
Miles Hammond, James Bracey (wk), Ian Cockbain, Glenn Phillips, Jack Taylor (c), Ryan Higgins, Benny Howell, Tom Smith, David Payne, Zak Chappell, Josh Shaw
Although Sussex Sharks have a three game lead in the overall T20 Blast head to head, Gloucestershire have won three of the last four games between the sides.

Gloucestershire won the return fixture by 41 runs in Bristol towards the end of May and the bookies are backing them to do the double over Sussex Sharks.
There are some experienced T20 batters on display in this fixture but it is New Zealander Tim Seifert who is the only player on either side to have hit a century in this season’s Blast.
Tim Seifert, Ravi Bopara and Tom Alsop are our batting recommendations for Sussex Sharks. Bopara has a top score of 105 not-out in domestic T20 cricket.
Glenn Phillips, Ian Cockbain and James Bracey are our batting tips for Gloucestershire. Cockbain has scored a ton and 20 half-centuries in this format during his career.
For Sussex Sharks, Tymal Mills, Steven Finn and Obed McCoy are our bowling tips. Mills has taken 8 wickets from his last four appearances in the 2022 Blast.
For Gloucestershire, Benny Howell, David Payne and Ryan Higgins are our bowling tips. Howell dismissed former Somerset captain Lewis Gregory in Thursday’s game.
With only one point separating Gloucestershire in third and Sussex in sixth, a win for either team will cement their place in the top half of the South Group. We are predicting an entertaining game in Hove but are backing Gloucestershire to bounce back from Thursday’s defeat with a win in this match.
