Two bottom ranked teams will be locking horns at The Lord’s hoping for a start of a comeback at a crucial juncture in the league. One of the biggest issues facing both teams is their poor batting form.
Both Middlesex and Sussex are struggling with form in this tournament. Middlesex have played seven matches in the tournament and have not managed to win a single game. They are currently struggling at the bottom of the South Group’s points table. If Middlesex fails to win one of their next two games, they will be eliminated from the tournament.
Sussex have played six matches in the tournament and have won only one of them. They are currently at number eight in the points table and, much like their opponents, are struggling to keep themselves alive in the tournament. They need to win three of their next four games to keep going further in the tournament else they will have to face elimination.

MDX VS SUS South Group Match Pitch Report:
The pitch at Lord’s generally favors bowlers. Batsmen will have to settle their feet to be able to play shots freely. Both pacers and spinners have roles to play at this venue. Chasing at Lord’s is not easy and if there is scoreboard pressure then the batsmen may lose wickets in quick succession in a bid to hit boundaries. So, batting first will be a wise decision during the MID vs SUS game at Lord’s London.
Who Will Win Today’s Match Between MIDDLESEX AND SUSSEX
Middlesex are still searching for their first victory of the season and are struggling to impose themselves with both bat and ball. They will need one of their experienced batters to perform if they are to be competitive in this game.
Sussex need to get more out of their top order batters to give themselves the best chance in this match. They have talent in their team and could well come away from Lord’s with a win..
Prediction: SUSSEX to win this match.
