Sussex vs Gloucestershire Predictions


Sussex are in good form, having won three of their last four games in all competitions. I am backing Sussex to beat the defending champions.

  • Sussex’s James Coles has scored 68, 39, 23 & 77* in his last 5 innings.
  • Sussex’s Daniel Hughes has scored 62, 49*, 25, 25, 38, 40 & 38 in his last 9 innings.
  • Gloucestershire’s Miles Hammond hit three sixes in his 25-ball innings of 38 against Kent.
  • Gloucestershire’s Oliver Price has scored 72* & 51 in his last 2 innings.

Head-to-Head


Sussex have won three and lost two of their last five matches against Gloucestershire.   

Sussex Form


Sussex got their Vitality Blast campaign off to a great start with a 16-run win over Middlesex.

Sussex got off to a strong start, with James Coles (77* off 44 balls) driving their total up to 202/4 off their 20 overs. 

Middlesex struggled to keep up with the run rate, ending their 20 overs on 186/7. Ollie Robinson (3/27, econ 6.75) was the pick of the Sussex bowlers. 

Sussex Team News


Sussex are in good form with the bat and have a bowling attack capable of defending a total.

Gloucestershire Form


The defending champions got off to a frustrating start to the Vitality Blast season when they lost to Kent by four runs after their batters let the game slip. 

Kent posted a competitive score of 208/3 off their 20 overs. Tom Smith (2/39, econ 9.75) was the pick of the Gloucestershire bowlers. 

Gloucestershire recovered from 61/3 after nine overs thanks to a hard-hitting 51 off 26 balls from Olive Price. The lower middle-order put up a good fight but it wasn’t enough as they fell four runs short of Kent’s total. 

Gloucestershire Team News


There are no injury reports from the Gloucestershire squad.

Verdict

I am backing Sussex to win. I am also backing James Coles to top score for Sussex.

Miles Hammond is a good bet to top score for Gloucestershire.
