Nottinghamshire vs Surrey Betting Tips
Lyndon James has scored 118 runs in three games this term at an average of 39.33. James posted the scores of 32, 82 & 4 runs respectively. The 24-year-old scored a fifty against Surrey in his previous meeting. His current run of form suggests that he will score high against Surrey in the game.
The 25-year-old England all-rounder Ryan Patel scored 68 runs for Surrey in the last game. His 67 ball stay at the crease was laced with 7 fours and 2 sixes. With 85 runs in two matches, Patel is Surrey’s 2nd highest run-scorer at the moment. He has been in phenomenal form in the 2nd XI Championship this season as well, scoring 399 runs in only four matches at an average of 79.80. He is arriving here after scoring three centuries in his last three First-Class innings. All that said, Patel is expected to put up a nice show with the bat against Nottinghamshire.

Nottinghamshire Team Form
Nottinghamshire started well with two wins in their first two completed matches but tasted defeat in their last game against Hampshire. Skipper Burns will be pretty disappointed with the performance his batters put in the last game. Nottinghamshire failed to chase a target of 254 runs. They will need to work on their batting if they wish to dismantle this Surrey side.

Surrey Recent Form
Surrey’s batting department impressed in their first game but the same cannot be said about their bowling unit. Their bowling unit conceded 325+ runs in both the matches they played this season. There has to be improvement in their bowling department if they wish to qualify for the knockouts.
Nottinghamshire vs Surrey Head-to-Head Record

Nottinghamshire vs Surrey Betting Odds
Haseeb Hameed to score low
Haseeb Hameed was in fantastic touch for Nottinghamshire last season, scoring 309 runs at 51.50. However, the 26-year-old is struggling to accumulate runs recently. In the three games, Hameed posted the scores of 5, 4 & 13 runs respectively. He has failed to put up a nice show with the bat in each of the three games and is averaging only 7.33 in the competition this term. Hameed has been struggling to score runs recently and we should definitely take advantage of this by betting on him to score low against Surrey in the game.
Nottinghamshire vs Surrey Top Batters
Lyndon James to be Nottinghamshire’s top batter
After a disappointing campaign last season, Lyndon James has started off really well this season. In the three games thus far, James has accumulated 118 runs and is his side’s top run-scorer at the moment. His scores this season read 32, 82 & 4 runs. We believe James would continue his good start to the season to the upcoming game which makes him our top pick for the game.
Ben Foakes to be Surrey’s top batter
Ben Foakes, Surrey’s top-scorer in the first game is their top run-getter this season at the moment. He has hammered 113 runs at an average of 56.50 in two matches. The 30-year-old has been in top notch form in the County Championship this year, scoring 535 runs at an average of 38.21. Without a doubt Foakes would be our top pick for the upcoming game.
Kent vs Middlesex Top Bowlers
Dane Paterson to be Nottinghamshire’s top bowler
Dane Paterson has come out to be Nottinghamshire’s top bowler in two out of the three completed games this season. He has picked 9 wickets at an average of 13.55 and conceded runs at an economy of just 4.38. His figures this season read 4/30, 1/51 and 4/41 respectively. Paterson has been lethal with the leather in hand and we predict him to be the top bowling prospect for Nottinghamshire in the game.
Jordan Clark to be Surrey’s top bowler
The 32-year-old English all-rounder Jordan Clark was Surrey’s best bowler in the last game. Against Kent, Clark picked up two wickets for 54 runs. Clark picked up as many as 41 wickets for Surrey this season in the County Championship. He is the 6th highest wicket-taker in the competition and has been a menace to the opposition batters. We predict Clark to be the top bowler for Surrey against Nottinghamshire.
