SUSSEX
V SURREY at Hove (Royal One-Day London Cup)
14 AUGUST 2022
One senses this is a game Surrey must win if they're to qualify
for the Royal London's knockout phase at the end of the month. For
Sussex, it's an opportunity to bin Friday's four-run defeat to
Warwickshire and move on.
The Oval outfit never looked like getting anything last time out
at Radlett, where Stevie Eskinazi laid the foundations for
Middlesex's 102-run success with a remarkable knock of 182 off 136
balls (the second highest individual score ever against Surrey in
List A cricket).
Conor McKerr (3-38) and slow left-armer Yousef Majid (2-51)
bowled creditably and Ryan Patel (118) responded to Eskinazi's
fireworks with a century of his own. However, by the time debutant
Nathan Barnwell contributed an entertaining 31, the writing was on
the wall.
Sussex's trump card with the bat has been India's Cheteshwar
Pujara, who, in addition to making 193 Royal London runs at an
average of 64.33, has taken the captain's armband. In four outings,
five others have hit half-centuries, including Ali Orr (41.25) and
Tom Alsop (39.00).
With the ball, Ari Karvelas - a Greek international, who plies
his trade for Central Gauteng in South Africa - has really caught
the eye in the last fortnight, taking nine wickets in the Royal
London at 14.22 runs apiece. Left-arm seamer Brad Currie and slow
left-armer Delray Rawlins have also chipped in to great effect.
Surrey v
Sussex - List
A Records Sheet
Sheridon Gumbs and Tim
Lloyd, both of whom were registered by Surrey just a couple of days
ago, could be on the brink of making their county debuts.
There's now a real sense the South Londoners
are down to the bare bones due to Test calls, The Hundred, Rory
Burns "recharging", Cameron Steel following concussion
protocols (after taking a blow on the head and retiring hurt at
Radlett) and the decision not to engage any overseas players for the
Royal London. Two 18-year-olds have therefore been added to the
squad - Sheridon Gumbs and Tim Lloyd.

With Surrey conceding 350+ for only the
seventh occasion in List A cricket a few days ago (and only the
second time since 2010), one doesn't need to look far to see what
needs remedying. However, it's hard to envisage the visitors'
inexperienced attack bouncing back against a decent batting line-up.
P.S. Surrey haven't won a List A game at Hove since 2008.
