T20 Blast 2022 | SUR vs SUS | Preview, Prediction, Probable XI, CREX XI

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.

Sam Curran excited about his return to England's red-ball team

England's bowling all-rounder Sam Curran has been an exceptional player for the national team since making his debut in 2018. After performing well in the international circuit, he replicated the same in the Indian Premier League (IPL) for Chennai Super Kings (CSK). However, Curran was ruled out of the 2021 edition of the T20 World Cup due to a lower back injury. He then missed the entire IPL 2022 while still in recovery mode. The southpaw last featured for England in August 2021 against India. However, after undergoing a stiff rehabilitation program with Surrey medical team, Curran returned to play the 2022 edition of the County Championship Division One. He amassed 328 runs in four matches but went wicketless. His performances in the ongoing T20 Blast 2022 has been terrific, wherein he is the best all-round performer for Surrey with 185 runs and 10 wickets in five appearances. With these performances, he was named in the upcoming three-match ODI series against the Netherlands this month. Curran shared his thoughts on England's impressive win in the 1st Test against New Zealand at Lord's. He reckoned that watching the players return to their top form was exciting and termed it as a fantastic win. "It was massively exciting to watch them, a fantastic win and a game that had everything," he told the PA news agency. The all-rounder added that Ben Stokes and Brendon McCullum are positive with their approach, which aligns with the people's expectations. "Stokesy and the new head coach Brendon McCullum are two positive guys and that's how most people like to see their cricket played." The 24-year-old cricketer hopes that he will make a comeback in the group and help the English team to have a successful summer. "There will be no backward steps under Ben and that's the way I like to play too. Hopefully, it's the start of a successful Test summer for the guys and, hopefully, I'll be back around the group." He looks forward to working under head coach McCullum in the red-ball format. "I've never worked with Brendon but I've met him a couple of times, he seems a really good guy and I'm really looking forward to it." In the end, Curran concluded that he is excited about the Netherlands trip, where he would be making a comeback after a hiatus of 10 months.
