Weather Conditions

Chelmsford has a rain and thunderstorms predicted on the match day and we expect rain to make a big impact in this match result.    

Venue Details

Chelmsford is a high scoring venue where batsmen will enjoy scoring runs at ease. The track promises good pace, bounce, and carry while overcast conditions might help pacers to swing the ball.  We expect scores around 280-300 runs in this match.

Toss: To Bowl

Chasing is the best option on high scoring venues as you will be not sure of a safe target here. Both captains will choose to bowl first with rain threat too looming large.        

Middlesex and Essex have a lot of experience in their playing XI when compared to the rest of the teams. Middlesex has an attacking batting line-up which gives them a edge over the Essex in this match. On the bowling Essex are finding it hard with their reliable fifth bowler`s option while Middlesex have only one specialist spinner in XI. We expect Middlesex to win this match if rain allows a result or a complete match to happen.
