Vitality Blast Preview | Hampshire Hawks vs Gloucestershire
12 July 2024
Gloucestershire face Hampshire Hawks in their penultimate away fixture of the South Group with both teams needing a win to keep qualification hopes alive.
The Shire will be looking for an immediate bounceback from a disappointing night in Cheltenham where Middlesex ran out the victors by 29 run yesterday.
Hampshire have just three wins from ten games so far this campaign but could still mathematically qualify should they win their last four.
Their last appearance came in El Clasicoast at Hove on Wednesday, with Sussex maintaining their momentum in this year's Blast in a 22-run win.
