Surrey vs Somerset Predictions

Both sides are in superb form as they sit at the top of the South Group table. I’m backing Surrey for the win as their batters and bowlers are all performing with greater consistency.

Surrey’s Dan Lawrence has scored 52, 178, 31* & 120* in his last 4 innings.
Surrey’s Will Jacks has scored 119, 20, 57 & 31 in his last 4 innings.
Somerset’s Will Smeed has scored 72, 25, 32 & 36 in his last 4 innings.
Somerset’s Tom Kohler-Cadmore hit seven sixes in his 39-ball 90 against Essex.

Head-to-Head

Somerset have won four and lost one of their last five matches against Surrey.

Surrey Form

Surrey beat Glamorgan by six wickets to pick up their seventh win in eight matches.

Glamorgan racked up 222/6 off their 20 overs. Sam Curran (2/31, econ 7.75) was the pick of the Surrey bowlers.

Surrey crashed were in trouble at 16/3 in the fourth over. Dan Lawrence (120* off 54 balls) and Tom Curran (40* off 27 balls) added an unbroken 146 for the fifth wicket to power Surrey to a six-wicket win with five balls to spare.

Surrey Team News

There are no injury reports from the Surrey squad.

Somerset Form

Somerset bounced back from their two-run loss to Glamorgan to win their next three matches on the trot. Their latest win was a five-wicket win over Kent.

Riley Meredith (3/19, econ 4.75) was the pick of the Somerset bowlers as they restricted Kent to 137/8 off their 20 overs.

Will Smeed, Tom Abell and Lewis Gregory all scored 30s as they reeled off a five-wicket win with nine balls to spare.

Somerset Team News

Somerset are in good form and unlikely to want to make any changes to their squad.

Verdict

Surrey v Somerset

I am backing Surrey to win. I am also backing Will Smeed to top score for Surrey.

Dan Lawrence is a good bet to top score for the Somerset.
