Vitality T20 Blast 2023, Gloucestershire vs Surrey: Probable XIs, Match Prediction, Pitch Report, Weather Forecast, and Live Streaming Details

The 39th match of the Vitality T20 Blast 2023 will see Gloucestershire lock horns against Surrey. The County Ground in Bristol will be hosting this exciting South Group clash.

Gloucestershire have not had an ideal start to the competition as they have managed to win only a single game out of four and have only two points under their belt. They faced Essex in their last game and suffered a loss.

After being asked to bat first, Ben Charlesworth hit a quickfire 52 off just 20 balls which helped them post 195 on the board. The bowlers picked up seven wickets in total and forced the game to last over but failed to defend the total. They will have to be on their toes while facing Surrey on Friday.

Surrey, meanwhile, have had a contrasting journey in the Vitality T20 Blast 2023. They have played four games so far and won three of those, beating Hampshire convincingly in their previous fixture.

The Surrey bowlers bowled beautifully and restricted Hampshire to 156/4. In reply, Will Jacks scored a brilliant 83* off 57 balls to help his side chase down the total with seven balls to spare with six wickets in hand. They will look to repeat their performance against Gloucestershire.
