Match Preview: Surrey v Hampshire, Vitality CC
A 13-player Hampshire squad will travel to The Kia Oval to take on Surrey in the Vitality County Championship
Following Essex Eagles' defeat to Kent Spitfires and Surrey's victory over Gloucestershire on Thursday evening, Hampshire have now ensured qualification for the quarter-final stages of this year's NatWest T20 Blast.
There is still all to play for heading into this evening's match against Somerset however, with James Vince's side looking to secure a home quarter-final tie in the final round of the group stages.
To qualify with a home quarter-final (top two places in the South Group)
Hampshire will qualify with a home quarter-final if they beat Somerset on Friday night at the The Ageas Bowl to finish on 17 points.
if Kent Spitfires are victorious against Surrey, Hampshire will likely qualify with a home quarter-final regardless of the result against Somerset due to having a superior run-rate.
To qualify with an away quarter-final
If Hampshire lose to Somerset on Friday night, they will finish on 15 points. Following other South Group results earlier this week, Surrey are the only team that can prevent Hampshire from securing a home quarter-final at the The Ageas Bowl.
Hampshire will get an away quarter-final if they lose to Somerset on Friday night and Surrey beat Kent Spitfires.
