THE LOWDOWN
Glamorgan’s reliance on Marnus Labuschagne looks like it could now cost them as he and Michael Neser entered their quarantine the other day before heading back for a white-ball tour of the West Indies with Australia. Labuschagne’s 294 runs in the Blast is over 100 more runs than anybody else in the side. They come up against a Sussex Sharks side that boasts some impressive performers in Tymal Mills and Chris Jordan as well as an extremely impressive top-order.
THE PREDICTION
The Welsh county come into this on the back of a heavy defeat away to the Essex Eagles which has pushed them towards the bottom-of-the-table and nearing potential elimination. That is just one win in their last six matches. They come up against a Sussex Sharks side that were hammered by Middlesex on Thursday. The Sharks, due to abandonments and defeats, are now winles in their last seven matches. Of those seven games, two finished with no result including one in which they were massively on top alongside three games completely called off. Therefore their form cannot be believed too much and the Sussex Sharks will come into this as the favourites. Sussex should get back on track here.
