Surrey will go head-to-head against Sussex in the upcoming South Group fixture of the T20 Blast 2022. The clash is scheduled to be played at the Kennington Oval, London, United Kingdom, on June 8 (Wednesday).
Surrey has been the team to beat this year, with four wins from 5 matches. They are currently sitting at the top of the South Group points table. However, their most recent encounter against Glamorgan was called off due to the rain. Heading into their next fixture, Surrey will be hoping to maintain their unbeaten record in the tournament.
On the other hand, Sussex has played six matches so far, winning three and losing as many games. They are coming into this game on the back of a 22-runs defeat against Hampshire.
Tim Seifert was the lone warrior from Ravi Bopara-led side as he smashed a quickfire 100 and remained not-out, but lack of support from the other end meant they couldn't overcome the challenge. Nevertheless, they will be looking to return to winning ways when they take on Surrey in their upcoming fixture.
