They haven’t won a single match and unsurprisingly, are rooted to the bottom of the table. Surrey defeated them by 43 runs in their most recent encounter.

Meanwhile, Sussex have been one of the best sides in Group A. They have won four of their six matches and are second in the standings, behind Leicestershire with eight points. Sussex have won their last two matches in a row, including their most recent four-wicket win over Durham. They will be the favourites to win this match as well.
