SUS vs SUR Team Previews
Sussex
Sussex have not made it back into the knockout stage for the past two years. Sussex previously had a hot streak of four consecutive years in the knockout stages between 2018 and 2021. Their start to the competition of three wins in the first four matches will give them hope of getting back to where they once were.
Australian left-handed batter, Daniel Hughes, has shone the way for the Sussex batters. Hughes has exploded onto the scene scoring 177 runs in his first four games striking at a fraction over 165. He has two 50s to his name as well.
Young James Coles combined with Hughes to put on a 103-run stand which ultimately saw off Gloucestershire. That game saw Coles scoring one of his two 50s. He averages 49 at a strike rate just over 150. Incredibly, he has hit 18 boundaries with only one of them going for a maximum.
Tymal Mills has been in and around the England T20 setup and is an experienced campaigner. He has been involved in a number of white-ball tournaments around the world. He has stood head and shoulders above the rest of the Sussex bowling attack. In his first four games he has scalped ten victims including four for 25 against Gloucestershire and four for 33 against Glamorgan.

Surrey
Surrey have made it a habit of getting to the knockout stage in recent years. They have qualified to the knockout rounds in three of the last four editions.
Jason Roy’s T20 strike rate of just over 140 highlights his power hitting. He will want to start Surrey off in the powerplay with an explosive start. He has over 9200 runs in the T20 format.
Jamie Smith’s first four games have been all about the number 200. He has scored over 200 runs at a phenomenal strike rate of also just over 200. His boundary-hitting capabilities are intriguing with far more sixes than fours off his bat.
Spencer Johnson’s name would have been mentioned in talks about potentially making Australia’s T20 World Cup. This proves the level that he is performing at. He has already bowled a maiden over this season. He has previous experience of only conceding one run while taking three wickets in his 20-ball spell against the Manchester Originals in The Hundred.
Surrey Playing 11
