SUR vs GLO Preview & Winner Prediction
Comparing both the teams together, team Surrey has a total number of eight consecutive wins in their account and has played very exceptionally in their Group stage. In the meantime, team Gloucestershire got a very easy to win in their quarterfinal match and their bowling department has been in good form that can cause big damage to the SUR batting department. However, the SUR batting line-up has been performing outstanding so this will be a very competitive match. By seeing their earlier performance, team Surrey seems to be more likely of getting a victory against Gloucestershire in the first semi-final round.
