Hide AdHampshire have endured a tough start to this year’s Vitality Blast, winning just one of their six matches so far. That 21-run victory at home to Middlesex and a tie against Essex at Chelmsford have not been enough to stop the two-time winners sitting at the bottom of the south group with three points.
New Zealand all-rounder Colin Munro is the team’s leading run scorer so far in this year’s tournament with 200 runs from his six innings. Left-arm seamer Chris Wood is the leading wicket taker with seven scalps from six matches.
Sussex and Hampshire have already met in this year’s tournament, with the Sharks recording an emphatic eight-wicket victory at The Ageas Bowl earlier this month.
