Hampshire vs Gloucestershire Chance of Winning

This game feels more like a mismatch as Hampshire try to gun down a place in the knockouts. With Gloucestershire already knocked out of the competition this game becomes a bit irrelevant for the visiting side.

Hampshire vs Gloucestershire Prediction & Betting Tips 2023

Hampshire are one of the most inconsistent teams in the tournament in the powerplay overs averaging 49.16 but at home the story is different as in five of the six games Hampshire has scored over 50 in the first six overs. Hampshire’s average powerplay score also jumps up to 54.66 at home.Gloucestershire average powerplay score this season is 49.58 which is slightly over the Hampshire average but way below what Hampshire average at home. What makes this tip even more remarkable is the fact Gloucestershire have conceded more runs in the first six overs in three of the last four games which makes us believe Hampshire would score more than Gloucestershire in powerplay overs.

Hampshire vs Gloucestershire Betting Odds

Hampshire to have a better opening partnership than Gloucestershire

Both teams have had inconsistencies in the top order this season. But if you look at Gloucestershire's opening stand in the last five games 0, 18, 7, 9 and 8 straight away you think this is easy money. In the last few games Hampshire has found some consistency which has been missing since the start of the season scoring 92, 1, 34 and 36 opening stands in the last four games. With James Vince being his usual self in home fixtures what makes this tip even more enticing is the fact Ben NcDermott was in a thick of things and scored a brilliant unbeaten 54 in the last outing which basically makes this tip a sure shot thing.

Hampshire vs Gloucestershire Top Team Batters

James Vince to be Hampshire’s top batter

Considering the venue is Old Trafford and the team is Hampshire you just cannot go against this phenom who has just been absurd at home. The only reason Vince did not score in the last game was because rain disrupted the proceedings and it turned out to be a 9 over game. There are very few things with 100% surety in life, James Vince scoring well at home is one of them.

Ben Charlesworth to be Gloucestershire’s top batter

Ben Charlesworth has had a solid season in what has been a campaign to forget for Gloucestershire. With 293 runs he is the top scorer for Gloucestershire in T20 Blast and one of the most consistent batters this term. With 34 runs, Charlesworth was the top scorer in the win against Sussex and makes him our top pick for the game

Hampshire vs Gloucestershire Top Team Bowlers

John Turner to be Hampshire’s top bowler

Even though John Turner has not been the top wicket taker but his inclusion has made a significant difference for the defending champions. In eight games, Turner has grabbed 15 wickets and is two wickets shy of Nathan Ellis who is the top wicket taker for the defending champions this year having played five games more than Turner. Turner's exceptional form continued in the last game which was cut short to nine overs due to rain, Turner bowled one over and conceded two runs in the game. We are going to stick with our pick for the upcoming game against Gloucestershire

Tom Smith to be Gloucestershire’s top bowler

Tom Smith has had a solid campaign so far. With 17 wickets in 12 games he is outright top wicket taker for Gloucestershire this term. What makes him even more enticing is his ability to consistently bowl with great accuracy in the death overs. Smith was once again lethal in the last game as he ended up with 2/35 which makes him our top pick for the game.

Our Prediction

Favorites to win: Hampshire

Even with all the struggles and inconsistencies this season, Hampshire’s home form has been the saving grace this season. With five wins in six home games, Hampshire with 16 points are third on the table and on a brink of yet another playoff berth this season.In the last game, Ben McDermott blast his fourth fifty of the tournament and John Turner’s impressive over at the death sealed the game as Hampshire beat Glamorgan by 21 runs.

Gloucestershire’s painful season comes to an end at the Rose Bowl Stadium as they head home after yet another campaign to forget. It's time to retrospect this tournament in general, especially their run of two wins in seven games in the second half which basically sealed their fate. Gloucestershire head into this game after claiming their fifth win of the season against Sussex as they won the game by five wickets.

Hampshire are unbeaten at home against Gloucestershire. Considering Hampshire’s record in this fixture and their winning momentum at home, Bookmakers have clearly sided with Hampshire in this fixture. We believe Gloucestershire stand no chance as they face title holders in their own backyard and Hampshire would have a comfortable evening come July 2.

• Hampshire to win @ 1.42 (Parimatch)
• Gloucestershire to win @ 2.75 (Parimatch)
