Match Details

Middlesex Team Preview

Middlesex have failed to qualify, but their last few games have been far more competitive. In their recent match, they came within 8 runs of chasing a massive 190. Stephen Eskinazi’s 53 and Luke Hollman’s explosive 44 (13 balls) almost took them over the line. Kane Williamson and Leus Du Plooy provided stability, while Ryan Higgins continues to impress as an all-rounder with 4/33 in the last match.

However, the bowling unit struggles with economy. Helm and Cornwall go over 10 RPO often, which might cost them if not corrected.

Glamorgan Team Preview

Glamorgan are in a must-win scenario and will be desperate to bounce back after three losses. In their previous match, they fell short chasing 176 and were bundled out for 135. William Smale and Colin Ingram were the only standouts with the bat.

Bowling-wise, Ned Leonard impressed with 2/22, and Kellaway along with Douthwaite chipped in. However, they lacked a collective bowling effort. Their middle order also needs urgent repair.

Probable Playing XI

Middlesex:
Stephen Eskinazi, Ben Geddes, Max Holden, Kane Williamson, Leus Du Plooy, Ryan Higgins, Luke Hollman, Noah Cornwall, Tom Helm, Zafar Gohar, Joe Cracknell

Glamorgan:
Kiran Carlson, William Smale, Alex Horton, Ben Kellaway, Colin Ingram, Asa Tribe, Imad Wasim, Daniel Douthwaite, Ned Leonard, Mason Crane, Van Der Gugten

Fantasy Dream11 Team

Fantasy Captain/Vice-Captain Picks:

• Captain: Ryan Higgins – consistent with both bat & ball
• Vice-Captain: Luke Hollman – form player, finishes well and takes wickets

Players to Avoid in Fantasy:

• Alex Horton – out of form with the bat
• Noah Cornwall – inconsistent with the ball and expensive

Favourite Team – Middlesex

Middlesex enter this match with slightly better form and a more explosive middle order. With players like Ryan Higgins and Luke Hollman in form, their edge in the all-rounder department gives them the upper hand. Glamorgan’s lack of consistency in both departments puts them under pressure. If Middlesex win the toss and chase, their firepower in the latter overs could prove decisive.
