Hampshire have very good records against Middlesex so they will try to continue their winning momentum against this team, on the other hand, Middlesex defeated only one team this season and that team was Hampshire. So Middlesex will be confident in this game to defeat Hamshire on 28th June.

Hampshire Preview

After struggling last year, this year also Hamshire are not on the mark and by winning just 1 game and 3 loses from 6 matches, they are at the 8th place in the south group with 4 points. They need to win this game to remain in the race for playoffs.

In total 6 matches, the team has played, the last 2 matches got abandoned due to rain so in 4 matches they registered a victory only against Essex so far. While playing against Essex they have set up a total of 155 runs on the board with the help of Joe Weatherley’s 42 from 34 balls. Chris wood bowled a brilliant spell of 1 wicket for 15 runs in his spell of 4 overs during the defending.

They have lost the game against Middlesex in the league stage earlier. Although they scored 215 runs on the board, they couldn’t manage to defend the target as bowlers bowled expensive spells and Middlesex managed to win that game by 3 wickets. D’Arcy Short’s 48 from 28 balls and Lewis McManus’ 47 from 27 balls were the key knocks from Hampshire’s side.

By looking at the overall performance of this season, they will try to win this game against Middlesex after two back-to-back abandoned games. They need to win this game by executing their plans well at the Rose Bowl on 28th June.

Middlesex Pr

Middlesex Preview

ve registered their only victory of this season against Hampshire and lost all 4 other games out of 5 they played to be at the bottom of the table in the south group with just 2 points in their account. This is also a must-win game for them to be in the race of knockouts.

While chasing the target of 216 against Hampshire, Joe Cracknell played a brilliant inning of 77 from 43 balls, and to help him, wicket-keeper; John Simpson scored a quick knock of 62 runs from 31 balls. John Simpson has been phenomenal for them and has scored 368 runs from the last 15 innings.

In the last match against Glamorgan, despite a brilliant spell of Steven Finn’s 4 wickets for 19 runs only, they couldn’t manage to chase down the target of 151 runs against the opponent. With poor batting performance, they were able to score 129 runs only in the 20 overs.

The team has a good bowling attack and Steven Finn led this attack well to take 24 wickets in the last 14 innings for this team. Their only concern is the poor form of middle-order batting so they will try to manage those things against Hamshire on 28th June.

John Simpson 15 368 28.30

Our Prediction

Our Prediction

rrent form of both teams, Middlesex have a good bowling attack but they are struggling with their middle-order batting lineup. On the other hand, Hampshire’s batsmen are looking in good touch this year and they will try to put pressure on the spin attack of Middlesex. Also in death overs, Middlesex have conceded more runs than Hampshire and that might cost them a defeat in this match against Hampshire.

We predict that Hampshire will defeat Middlesex.
