T20 Blast 2022 | SUR vs GLM | Preview, Prediction, Probable XI, Crex XI

Surrey will begin their campaign in the T20 Blast 2022 against David Lloyd's Glamorgan. 

Since the tournament's inception, Surrey has tried to alter the team combinations with the trophy eluding them. They have roped in Chris Jordan and handed him the captaincy. In addition, Caribbean superstars Sunil Narine and Kieron Pollard have also joined the roster. Though Pollard has not been at his best, the team management will likely back him to end the lean patch.

England international Jason Roy also returns to professional cricket after taking a short break from the sport. Surrey's top order will get strengthened with his return.

Glamorgan, on the other hand, has kick-started their journey in style. They defeated Sussex by seven wickets, riding on Michael Hogan's brilliant performance with the ball. Surrey needs to be wary of Sam Northeast and Marnus Labuschagne, who look in ominous touch.
