TEAMS PREVIEW
Sussex Preview
Sussex Sharks have beaten the Gloucs twice so far. They will miss Jofra Archer in the semi-final since the pacer is part of the England squad for the Australia T20Is. Sussex should consider getting Danny Lamb in for Archer in the pace attack.
Ollie Robinson and Bradley Curie are other consistent wicket-takers in this squad who can put Sharks on top of the game. The batting looks strong with the two openers in great form.
However, the middle-order batters Tom Clark and James Coles haven’t scored big in recent outings but can make impactful contributions with the bat. It was Fynn Hudson-Prentice along with John Simpson who led Sharks to victory over Gloucestershire while chasing 168 runs.
And in their second win over Gloucs, James Coles and Tom Aslop stepped up and delivered match-winning performances in the middle order. We don’t expect many game-changing performances from the batters but even a few good knocks can help the Sharks gain the upper hand on Gloucestershire.
The top-order batters are more reliable and it will be up to Ward and Hughes to get the Sharks off to a flying start and set the momentum for the rest of the innings.
Sussex Predicted Playing XI:
Harrison Ward, Daniel Hughes, Tom Clark, James Coles, John Simpson (wk), Tom Alsop, Fynn Hudson-Prentice, Danny Lamb, Ollie Robinson, Tymal Mills (c), Bradley Currie

Gloucestershire Preview
Gloucestershire will be backing themselves to beat Sussex for the first time this season. They’ve got in-form bowlers who have defended a total in the last 3 consecutive matches.
Olive Price and James Taylor have both led the team on different occasions. They have a key role to play in the middle order. While Price delivered 3 wickets in the last match, he must find his rhythm with the bat in this crucial match.
The number 4 and 5 batters have the responsibility to build partnerships. Without them, Gloucestershire won’t be able to post a competitive total. Openers Miles Hammond and Cameron Bancroft have looked in good touch.
They are among the top scorers in the recent outings. However, irrespective of their contributions, Gloucestershire might still end up with a low total if the middle-order of James Bracey, Price, and Taylor doesn’t deliver key partnerships.
David Payne will be leading the bowling attack. He has been consistent and is a key wicket-taker to watch out for. Oliver Price and Tom Smith will be leading the pace attack while Matt Taylor is another reliable wicket-taking fast bowler.
Gloucestershire Predicted Playing XI:
Miles Hammond, Cameron Bancroft, James Bracey (wk), Oliver Price (c), Jack Taylor, Ben Charlesworth, Tom Price, Matt Taylor, Josh Shaw, David Payne, Tom Smith

PITCH AND WEATHER CONDITIONS
Weather Conditions
We expect cloudy skies in Birmingham on the match day with a high of 17 degrees Celsius. The overcast conditions should help the pacers move the ball through the air. It should be a complete T20 match without any rain interruptions as far as the forecast goes.
SUS vs GLO Pitch Report
It will be the second game of the day at Edgbaston. The pitch will slow down and favour the bowlers, offering some lateral movement. Spinners will come into play in the later stages of the game. Expect a low-scoring affair.
Right-arm off-break bowler Tom Price also found great help from the surface in the last match at this venue. The average 1st innings score in the last 10 T20s at Edgbaston is 178 runs. The bowlers will be on top in this contest and will play a key role to leading their side to a win.
Toss: To Bat
Teams batting first have won 7 of the 9 T20 Blast matches at this venue. The Bears opted to bowl first in the quarter-final against the Sharks and lost by 14 runs while chasing 139. Both teams have an in-form bowling attack and will be confident of defending a score in this match.
SUS vs GLO
Winning Prediction
It will be a close outing between two in-form sides. Both have been brilliant with the ball in the quarter-finals. We expect this match to be dominated by the bowlers and toss can play a key role in this game. Sussex Sharks have a stronger bowling attack along with a slight edge in the batting lineup as well. Sharks will start as favorites in our match prediction.
Sussex Sharks to win!
