SURREY
V LANCASHIRE at Guildford (Metro Bank One-Day Cup)
17 AUGUST 2023
Eighth (out of nine) in Group A plays host to sixth, in what will
be the first List A meeting between Surrey and Lancashire in ten
years.
Both sides have endured a rocky road to this point in the Metro
Bank One-Day Cup - so much so that even the winner of this clash
will need a miracle if they're going to see anything of the knockout
phase, having scored just a single victory apiece (Surrey over Notts
at Welbeck, by three runs, with Lancashire's coming at Kent's
expense, by 125 runs at Blackpool).
Josh Bohannon (178 runs at 44.50), who made 105 to help gun down
the the Spitfires, is a whisker in front of Dane Vilas (174 at
43.50) and skipper Keaton Jennings (171 at 42.75) in terms of
Lancashire's leading List A run-makers this term.
The stand-out bowler, seamer Jack Blatherwick (9 Metro Bank
wickets at 21.66 apiece), has been supported ably by George
Balderson (5 at 20.80), Will Williams (24.80) and 22-year-old slow
left-armer Jack Morley (31.60).
Alongside Morley, all-rounder Thomas Aspinwall, 19, and batter
Matty Hurst, also 19, are those currently getting to see rare first
team action while Lancashire's cream is off playing in The Hundred.

The record of sides batting second in List A
matches at Guildford (10 wins out of the last 13) suggests it could
all come down to the toss. Both teams have blown hot and cold in the
Metro Bank One-Day Cup, but as Surrey have shown no small amount of
fight in recent outings maybe they have the edge.
