Sussex Sharks vs Essex Eagles prediction
The Sussex Sharks have struggled throughout their T20 Blast campaign with two victories and six defeats in their eight matches. The Sharks were skittled for 122 against the Warwickshire Bears in Edgbaston the other day.
They now face an Essex Eagles side that have won four and lost four of their eight matches thus far. Essex were involved in a high-scoring affair against Surrey the other day, falling just seven runs short of chasing 241 in Chelmsford.
Up against weaker opposition, particularly in term of the batting lineup, Essex should be viewed as the favourites to get a crucial win here.
