Surrey vs Glamorgan prediction: The 17th T20 Blast 2025 match between Surrey and Glamorgan promises to be an exciting encounter at Sophia Gardens, Cardiff, on Tuesday, 3rd June. This is Glamorgan’s first home game of the season and they’ll be eager to maintain their winning momentum after defeating Middlesex in a low-scoring thriller. On the other hand, Surrey will look to bounce back from a disappointing loss against Somerset. With key players like Jason Roy and Sam Curran in good form, Surrey enters this match as slight favorites.
However, Glamorgan’s bowling attack, led by Mason Crane and Dan Douthwaite, is more than capable of upsetting even the strongest batting lineups. The pitch at Cardiff is known to assist pacers early on, which could prove vital for both sides. With conditions favoring bowlers initially, the toss could play a significant role. Let’s delve into the full Surrey vs Glamorgan prediction and match details below.

Glamorgan Preview
Glamorgan started their campaign on a high note with a convincing 5-wicket win over Middlesex. Mason Crane’s excellent leg-spin spell of 4/28 broke Middlesex’s back, and Hayden Kerr’s brilliant fielding was instrumental in removing Kane Williamson early. Dan Douthwaite was effective with the ball and chipped in with the bat, scoring a quick 31 off 19.
The real surprise was Jersey debutant Asa Tribe, whose 40 off 26 balls rescued Glamorgan from a precarious 40/4 and took them home. Kiran Carlson and Colin Ingram, with past success at Cardiff, need to stabilize the innings upfront in this critical clash against Surrey. Glamorgan’s bowling is sharp, but their top-order batting still looks vulnerable. If their experienced batters step up and bowlers replicate their last performance, they could challenge the stronger Surrey side.
Surrey Preview
Despite a defeat against Somerset, Surrey remains a formidable T20 side. Jason Roy was phenomenal with a blazing 92 off 54 balls, but the lack of support from the rest of the lineup cost them the match. Sam Curran showed glimpses of form both with bat and ball, while debutant Yousef Majid made a strong impression with 2 wickets.
Surrey’s pace battery, featuring Daniel Worrall, Tom Curran, and Chris Jordan, is well-suited to Cardiff’s seam-friendly surface. Historically, Surrey has performed well at this venue, and Roy and Curran have solid personal records here. Their bowling depth and explosive batting lineup give them a definite edge, provided they overcome recent middle-order inconsistencies.

Favourite Team Today (Why)
Surrey enters the match as favorites due to their all-round strength. Despite losing their opener, the form of Jason Roy and Sam Curran is a massive advantage. Their bowling unit is deeper than Glamorgan’s and has better death-over specialists. Glamorgan’s top-order is still unsettled, and although their bowling attack is impressive, it may struggle against the explosive Surrey batting unit if they don’t strike early. Surrey’s past dominance at Cardiff and their depth in both departments makes them the more balanced and dangerous side heading into this clash.
