SURREY V GLOUCESTERSHIRE at the
Kia Oval (Royal London One-Day Cup), 27 JULY 2016
Both of 2015's Royal
London finalists have struggled to replicate their one-day form of
last year. Indeed, whichever side loses this particular contest can all
but write-off their hopes of qualifying for the quarter-finals,
especially Gloucestershire, who will arrive at the Oval with a
negative net run rate. It took the defending champions four games
to break their duck. Even then, they required a 242-run
opening stand between Michael Klinger (166*) and Chris Dent (142) to
overcome Hampshire by 10 runs. Therein lies the Bristolians'
Achilles heel - their inconsistent bowling attack, which is so dependent on Benny Howell's steady medium pace
and the all-round contribution of slow left-armer Tom Smith, who hit
43 not out before taking 4-26 in last Sunday's victory over Sussex
at Cheltenham.
Surrey v
Gloucestershire - List A Records Sheet
Rory Burns (954) is closing in on 1,000 List A
career runs. Burns enjoys playing Gloucestershire - in
his two one-day appearances against them he has hit 95 and 56. Jade
Dernbach (196) and Mark Footitt (47) are also approaching milestones;
namely 200 and 50 one-day wickets respectively. On the Gloucestershire side,
Ian Cockbain, who is set to make his 50th List A appearance, is just
five away from one thousand one-day career runs.
No real surprises in the squad announced for this game and no real
news on Zafar Ansari's back injury, which is a real worry going forward.

Not that these two have met all that often in one-day cricket of
late, but, in the last ten years, Surrey's List A record against
Gloucestershire reads Played 7, Won 3, Lost 4. By some quirk, even
though the Oval outfit have lost more games than they've won in this
summer's Royal London, they still boast the best net run rate in the
South Group heading into tomorrow's round of matches. Moreover, they
have just overcome table toppers Essex in their own backyard. If the
weather holds - they're saying there's a 25% chance of precipitation
- Surrey, with the Curran brothers back from England A duty, should
prove too strong for the visitors.
