Somerset vs Surrey prediction

Surrey’s bowling attack is a strong one with the likes of captain Sam Curran, brother Tom and the vastly experienced Chris Jordan heading it up, not to mention New Zealand international Nathan Smith. There are more question marks over the batting however, with international call-ups and IPL commitments affecting the line-up. Plenty depends upon Jason Roy and Ollie Pope.

Unfortunately for Surrey, playing on a notoriously high-scoring ground like Taunton really doesn’t suit their game currently, as it will stunt their bowling attack and allow Somerset to do what they so often do in T20 cricket, blast the opposition into submission. Their batting line-up is as deep as you’ll find in the country and no score feels too big for them to chase down if bowling first. At home, Somerset have to be favoured.
