Preview:
Glamorgan are facing a hard time in this tournament, as they have managed to win only 2 matches so far and have placed themselves at the 7th spot in the standings with 6 points. Two of their prominent players, Marnus Labuschagne and Nick Selman won’t be available until further updates, as the latter tested positive for COVID-19. They need to win every match from now on to make it to the Quarter-finals.
Meanwhile, Surrey’s previous match was abandoned due to rain against Sussex. With 4 wins, 2 losses, and 3 no results, they have placed themselves at 3rd spot in the standings with 11 points. The inclusion of Kyle Jamieson will give them a perfect balance as he can contribute equally well with both bat and ball.
