Preview:
Leicestershire will go head-to-head against Surrey in the Group 1 contest of the English One Day Cup 2021 on Saturday. Leicestershire started the tournament on a winning note, but thereafter, it has been a completely different story, where they lost 3 back-to-back matches. They shared points with Glamorgan in the previous game as the rain came in the mid-way of the match.
Meanwhile, Surrey will be disappointed as two of their matches were washed away by rain, handing them 2 points. They are in a fairly decent position at the 6th spot of the table, having won two and lost one match. They will be praying for a full game on Saturday.
Match Details:
Leicestershire vs Surrey, Group 1
Venue: Grace Road, Leicester
Date & Time: August 7th at 3:30 PM IST and 11:00 AM local time
Live Streaming: Youtube/Team website
Pitch Report:
It’s a flat batting surface where bowlers need to be on top of their game to control the run-flow as the boundaries are pretty small. We have witnessed even 300 plus runs have been successfully chased here and hence bowling first is a preferable option.
