Glamorgan vs Surrey: Match Analysis
Glamorgan started the season on a high note and will look to continue on that path. In their opening game of the season, this team pulled off a 5-wicket win over Middlesex in a 124-128 contest. However, this performance is evidence of how brilliant this team has been in recent times, racking up five consecutive wins. In that run, this team won Middlesex three times while defeating Kent and Northamptonshire. While they have struggled against this Surrey in recent times, a win in this one will make it consecutive wins over this opponent.
Surrey will look to get things right in this game after a struggling start to the season. In their opening game against Somerset, this team could not live up to expectations, losing by 5 wickets in a 147-146 score. In recent matches, including the County Championship One, this team has lost three of their last four matches, with their lone win coming against Yorkshire. Yet, they lost to Essex and Warwickshire/Birmingham Bears.
Glamorgan Form
Kiran Carlson will have to be at his best in this game for Glamorgan in the batting department. The Welsh player has 686 runs in 37 matches. Also, Colin Ingram has 1557 runs in 55 matches, and this team will be counting on him.
Glamorgan Expected Lineup
Kiran Carlson (C), William Smale, Ben Kellaway, Colin Ingram, Chris Cooke (wk), Asa Tribe, Dan Douthwaite, Hayden Kerr, Mason Crane, Timm van der Gugten, Andy Gorvin
Surrey Form
Daniel Worrall will be crucial for Surrey in the bowling department as he will aim to provide crucial breakthroughs. Also, Chris Jordan, has 5 wickets in 5 matches at Cardiff, and Tom Curran picked up 8 wickets in 6 matches at the same ground and should be important for this side. Jason Roy, currently has been brilliant with the bat with 176 runs in 6 matches, averaging 29.33 per match. Meanwhile, Sam Curran has 112 runs and picked up 6 wickets in 4 matches at this venue.

Glamorgan vs Surrey Prediction
Glamorgan will be confident they can get the job done after starting their season with a win. While this team also won the last meeting of this fixture, it is just impossible not to think they can win this one. Yet, despite recent struggles and inconsistencies, Surrey have been tagged favourites in this game, and it shows what we can expect from the road team. Therefore, this is expected to be a game where both teams come in with their A-game. Yet, I believe this will be more offensive and mature, with the dot ball expected to be first of the match.
