Only 1 win in 6 games so far in the 2021 Vitality Blast T20 and it’s been a horrid season for Essex so far. They’re one of the worst performing teams in the South Group and it’s been 6 games since they last had a victory too. Just yesterday, they played Kent and were handed a 67-run thrashing. They’ll be desperate for a win today as they play in the only fixture today at the T20 Blast 2021!
They’re up against Surrey who has been one of the better teams in South Group with 3 wins in their 5 games so far. Two of their matches were abandoned due to rain which means this team is yet to lose after starting the season with a hat-trick of victories, an they’re clear favourites for this encounter tonight.

Stats that matter
- Head to head in last 5 games, these teams are tied 2-2.
- Jason Roy – 139 runs in 4 games for Surrey this season.
Surrey
National side opener Jason Roy is their top scorer while all-rounder Sam Curran is their top wicket-taker with 6 scalps in 4 games. Curran’s elder brother Tom is also part of the team and the three of them are all part of the squad to play Sri Lanka in the 1st T20I which is on 23rd June. We’re not sure if they’ve been cleared to play this game or have to be with the national side, so wait for the toss before you pick your SUR vs ESS fantasy team today.
Someone who is a vital part of this squad is Will Jacks who opens with Jason Roy and usually bowls with the new ball as well. He has 100+ runs too this season and is worth picking as fantasy captain or vice-captain today. If you want an additional batting option, choose Laurie Evans in your SUR vs ESS Dream11 team because he’s got experience in various T20 leagues around the world and he’s got starts here as well.
Essex
A must in everyone’s BatBall11 (Code “READ123“) SUR vs ESS fantasy teams today is James Neesham who was expensive with the ball in the last game and got 1 with the bat but he’s still their top scorer and has plenty of international experience, so is worth picking even as fantasy captain. A big boost to the side is the return of national player Daniel Lawrence who will bat up the order and bowls sometimes too.

While they were thrashed for 230+ in the last game and most of the bowlers were expensive, their top bowler of the season Samuel Cook continued his merry way with another wicket and he is a must have in today’s game. Since the top order is collapsing more often than not, it’s worth picking Dutch veteran batsman Ryan ten Doeschate even though he may not have the best scores in recent outings for Essex.
