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

Surrey and Sussex are set to lock horns in a South Group match of the T20 Blast 2023 on Sunday, May 28. The Kennington Oval in London will host the contest.

Surrey, captained by Sam Curran, are sitting on top of the table with four points and a net run rate of +2.850. They defeated Kent by 41 runs in their previous game. Sean Abbott was the star of the show after he scored the joint fourth-fastest T20 hundred, off just 34 balls.

Abbott also racked up the joint-fastest ton in the T20 Blast, equalling Andrew Symonds’ record set way back in 2004. In both matches, Surrey bowlers stepped up and they will be looking to carry the momentum into their next game as well.

Sussex, led by Ravi Bopara, lost to Somerset by five wickets to start their campaign. Skipper Bopara scored 88 runs off 49 balls with three fours and seven sixes, but his efforts could not pay dividends for his team.

After being asked to chase down 184, Somerset romped home with three balls to spare. Tymal Mills picked up three wickets for 28 runs, but did not get much support from others.
