Preview:

Hampshire are still searching for their 2nd win in this competition. The weather has not been kind for them as 3 of their matches were washed out, including the previous match against Middlesex. With one, 4 losses, and 3 no results, they are still sitting at the bottom of the table with 5 points.

Meanwhile, Surrey were left gutted last night against Glamorgan, as they lost the match by only one run. Ollie Pope and Kyle Jamieson’s efforts went in vain as they couldn’t hang on in the run-chase. They have placed themselves at the 4th spot in the standings with 11 points.
