Preview

Hampshire will host Essex at the Rose Bowl in Southampton for the 122nd match of the ongoing T20 Blast 2024. The game will be a must-win clash for Essex to ensure their chances for the knockout stage of the tournament. However, they will also have to depend on the result of a few other matches. One of those is the Sussex vs Middlesex game, in which the latter’s win will increase the chances for Essex.

Simon Harmer’s Essex have won seven and lost five out of the 13 games they have played in the tournament. Their campaign also includes a game without any result. They now have 15 points to their name, and a win in this game will help them move to the fourth spot of the points table or the third (if Sussex loses against Middlesex).

On the other hand, Hampshire will be eyeing ending their league stage on a winning note as they are far away from qualification for the tournament’s knockout stage. James Vince’s side has lost seven and won only 3, alongside 3 ‘no-result games’ in the 13 matches they have played.

Eddie Jack
