Gloucestershire vs Hampshire Chance of Winning

Both teams head into this game with contrasting expectations for the remainder of the season. On one hand Hampshire try to secure a place in knockouts and on the other hand, Gloucestershire try to end this tournament on a positive note with their chances of knockout places diminishing with speed of light with every passing game. As per our calculations, this game is kind of a mismatch and we believe Gloucestershire just doesn’t have enough quality to trouble the defending champions.

Gloucestershire vs Hampshire Prediction & Betting Tips 2023

We believe Gloucestershire would have a great start and would score more than Hampshire in the powerplay. In the last two of the three games Gloucestershire have scored more than their opponent, scoring with an average of 50.11. Hampshire has surprisingly struggled in the powerplay this term, scoring with an average of 47.9 but have conceded with an average of 50 in the first overs in this tournament. Considering the fact Gloucestershire’s average is more than Hampshire and more than what they have conceded, we believe this tip is a no brainer and should invest upon for quick return.

Gloucestershire vs Hampshire Match Toss Prediction

In four of the five games this season has been won by the team bowling first. This underlined stat along with expected disruptions due to rain makes the toss a bit more significant as both teams would prefer to bowl first as D & L could come into play.

Weather Report

Weather report thus suggests a 70% chance of rain which probably could have an impact on the game. The maximum temperature during the game will be around 24C while the minimum is expected to be 15C.

Gloucestershire vs Hampshire Betting Odds

Hampshire to score more boundaries that Gloucestershire

Among all 18 teams, Gloucestershire has the worst record in terms of boundaries scored in the tournament averaging 12.88 boundaries and have conceded 13.66 boundaries in the tournament so far. On the other hand, Hampshire have averaged 14.1 boundaries and have conceded 13.1 in the season. What doubles down on this great tip is the fact in the last three games Hampshire has managed to score more boundaries than their opponent which makes this a great tip to get some quick financial benefits.

Gloucestershire vs Hampshire Top Team Batters

Ben Charlesworth to be Gloucestershire’s top batter

Ben Charlesworth has been one of the few positives of the campaign. Charlesworth has managed to score 230 runs this term and is the leading run scorer for Gloucestershire. Charlesworth scored 45 in the last outing against Glamorgan and was the top scorer for his side which makes him our top pick for the game.

Ben Mcdermott to be Hampshire’s top batter

Ben Mcdermott scored a half century as Hampshire registered their first win in three games. Even though James Vince outscored Mcdermott in the game, still we will go with Mcdermott to be a top batter as he has been much more reliable than James Vince away from home.

Gloucestershire vs Hampshire Top Team Bowlers

Tom Smith to be Gloucestershire’s top bowler

Gloucestershire has struggled in bowling department throughout this season with non of the bowlers making the top 20 list of highest wicket taker this tournament. Tom Smith ended up with best bowling figures in the last two games for his team which makes him our top pick for the game.

Nathan Ellis to be Hampshire’s top bowler

Nathan Ellis continued with his brilliant form as he ended up with 3/21 against Surrey in the last outing. Ellis has now grabbed 14 wickets in the tournament and is now outright top wicket taker for Hampshire in the tournament. Ellis’s consistency that he has showcased in the last few games makes him our top pick for the game.

Our Prediction

Favorites to win: Hampshire

If we look at the last few games of Hampshire in the tournament, if there is one team who know how to be on the other side of an upset it's the title holders, defeats against Kent and Sussex are the prime examples of how uncertain the season has been for Hampshire. After a couple of upsets, Hampshire returned to winning ways as they dismantled Surrey on the back of their ever reliable pair of Ben Mcdermott and James Vince and won the game with nine wickets to spare.

Gloucestershire have had an underwhelming campaign so far. Even though mathematically they are still in the hunt to finish top four, Gloucestershire would need a perfect run in the last five games to stand a chance, which we believe is a bit too much to expect for a team who has won just three games all season. They head into this game on the back of three straight defeats and could get rolled over when defending champions come to town.

Hampshire are 3-0 in the last three head to head games against Gloucestershire and have lost just once in five games at the County Cricket Ground against the home team. It isn’t a surprise that bookmakers have heavily backed Hampshire to take maximum points in the upcoming fixture, giving them odds as low as 1.46. Gloucestershire head into this game with zero expectation, with PariMatch offering odds as high as 2.69. We believe Gloucestershire needs some kind of miracle to take home something from the game .

• Gloucestershire to win @ 2.69(PariMatch)
• Hampshire to win @ 1.46(PariMatch)
