Top 3 Bowlers for Sussex vs Yorkshire

This was a great match to watch and a very close win for Sussex. Yorkshire batted first and set a target of 178 which looked decent on the wicket. Sussex was doing some damage with the ball having Yorkshire at 33/3. Ballance and Kohler-Cadmore build a good partnership to move the score on to 118/4.

This looked like a nailed-on Yorkshire win with Rashid and Jordan in at 156/5 with 2 overs remaining. Rashid bludgeoned 27 runs from 9 balls with 3 fours and 2 sixes. This sealed the win with 2 balls remaining. Yorkshire was unlucky to get knocked out as they had played well through the group stages.

The Birmingham Bears were looking good at 36/1 until the bowlers got stuck in and had them at 55/6. After this, it was inevitable that Kent would win this match. They eventually got the Bears out for 141 runs sealing the win by 21 runs.


Sussex vs Kent Match Prediction

The semi-final will be a tense affair as it is a big day for both teams. Kent hasn’t been at finals day since 2009 so this is a big occasion for them.

All the Cricketics team thinks this will be a Kent win. They have too much for Sussex and as long as they play the team in front of them and not the occasion they will get the win.

Predicted result: Kent to win by 20+runs
