Essex vs Surrey Prediction & Betting Tips 2023
Sam Curran missed most of the tournament and his return in the starting 11 has been a blessing for Surrey as in the last game against Somerset, even though Surrey lost the game, Curran scored a brilliant half century which makes us believe he would score well in the upcoming game.
Dean Elgar did not have a great outing in the last game but he has had a brilliant campaign thus far. In 11 matches, Elgar has scored 320 runs with an average of 32 which is brilliant for a top order batsman. We expect Elgar to play a key role in this game and he will score well in the upcoming game.

Essex vs Surrey Betting Odds
Surrey to have a better opening partnership than Essex
Surrey and Essex go head to head in what feels like a four pointer game as both sides are separated by a single points and as we head to the final few fixtures a result for either side would make them favourites to qualify for the playoffs this season. Surrey has had a phenomenal run thus far and has been the best team in this tournament but they head into this game on the back of a disappointing loss against Somerset. On the other hand, Essex have won back to back games and are currently third on the table. What makes this tip so enticing is the fact in two of the last three games, Surrey have managed to have a better opening stand which makes us believe Surrey would have a better opening partnership in the upcoming game and it's a great opportunity to make some quick financial gains.
Essex vs Surrey Top Batters
Michael-Kyle Pepper to be Essex’ top batter
Michael-Kyle Pepper has had a phenomenal season thus far as 488 runs, he is the leading run scorer in this tournament. In the last game against Sussex, Pepper scored a brilliant century which makes him our top pick in the upcoming game.
Laurie Evans to be Surrey’ top batter
Even though Laurie Evans struggled in the last game against Somerset, we are going to stick with him as he has been pretty consistent throughout the season and has scored 231 runs thus far which makes him our top pick in the upcoming game.
Essex vs Surrey Top Bowlers
Paul Walter to be Essex’ top bowler
Paul Walter did not have a great game in the last outing Sussex regardless, he has been brilliant for Essex thus far and with 13 wickets he is the leading wicket taker for his side which makes him our top pick in the upcoming game.
Chris Jordan to be Surrey’ top bowler
Surrey heads into this game with most of their main bowlers sidelined either because of international commitment or injuries. Chris Jordan has returned into the starting lineup and we expect him to do well which makes him our top pick in the upcoming game.
