Gloucestershire will be looking to build on their commanding win over Glamorgan as they return to Bristol for a must-win clash against fellow mid-table dwellers Sussex. Their batting clicked at Cardiff, with Ben Charlesworth and Jack Taylor both playing crucial knocks, and their bowling was even more impressive—David Payne (3/16) and Marchant de Lange (4/20) ran riot through Glamorgan’s lineup. Now on 20 points with two games left, Gloucs still have a path to qualification, though their net run rate needs repairing.
Sussex, meanwhile, stumbled against Hampshire despite a competitive total of 167. Their top order batted fluently—George Thomas and Tom Clark particularly—but the bowlers couldn’t contain a rampant James Vince. Tymal Mills’ side sits just two points ahead of Gloucestershire but has played the same number of games. With their own qualification hopes hanging by a thread, this is effectively an elimination fixture.
Both sides rely heavily on their experienced core, but youth has made a significant difference lately—Oliver Price and James Coles have emerged as game changers. With a flat deck expected at Bristol, expect plenty of runs and a game that could go deep.
