Warwickshire vs Essex Betting Tips

Essex to score over 26.5 before first dismissal @ 1.83 (Parimatch)

Dean Elgar and Paul Walter have opened Essex’s last five matches and although they could work on their consistency, their partnership has become successful with time. Together, the duo secured totals of 7, 68, 10, 63, 24, 2, 19 and 30 runs before the fall of the first wicket. They are on course to set up another competitive stand in the upcoming game.

Warwickshire vs Essex Toss Prediction

The toss winners elected to bat and field first three times each this season and the victories are also divided 1-1 between those batting and chasing. Nevertheless, the average first innings score of 404 is quite competitive and defensible which will make batting first the top choice in the upcoming fixture, too.

Weather Report

The weather forecast suggests light showers at Birmingham with a mild 25% possibility of precipitation. The temperature is expected to touch 15 degrees Celsius.

Warwickshire vs Essex Betting Odds

Essex to have a better opening partnership than Warwickshire

Warwickshire’s Rob Yates and Alex Davies are the mainstay openers for the team this season but their form is a tad erratic, evidenced by scores of 10, 48, 52, 0 and 8 runs in the last three matches. They pale in comparison to Essex considering Dean Elgar and Paul Walter have set up stands of 7, 68, 10 and 63 runs in the previous three outings. Although the latter have shown inconsistency as well, the bookmakers rely on the latter to achieve a better first partnership than their counterparts at Warwickshire.

Warwickshire vs Essex Best Batters

Sam Hain to be Warwickshire’s Best Batter

Sam Hain returned to the squad after sitting out a few games, and he struggled to hit the ground running as he faced a golden duck dismissal against Surrey. He did not get a chance to bat in the second innings but he remains Warwickshire’s second leading batter overall with 671 runs in 16 innings and an average of 55.91 which makes him the favorite against Essex.

Matt Critchley to be Essex’s Best Batter

In the previous outing against Durham, Matt Critchley emerged as the top batter for Essex in their sole innings with a 129-run century. He has made his way to second place among the team’s batters with 764 runs in 19 innings which includes three tons and three half-centuries. Further, he has an impressive average of 42.44, making him the top pick against Warwickshire.

Warwickshire vs Essex Best Bowlers

Ethan Bamber to be Warwickshire’s Best Bowler

Ethan Bamber was among the top bowlers for Warwickshire in the previous game against Surrey, having claimed two wickets in each of the two innings. He stands as the team’s leading wicket-taker in the tournament with 38 wickets in 22 innings. Although his average of 34.52 is not particularly favorable, he is expected to showcase his wicket-taking prowess in the upcoming fixture.

Jamie Porter to be Essex’s Best Bowler

As predicted for the last game, Jamie Porter led Essex’s bowling attack against Durham with a four-wicket haul in the first innings and three additional wickets in the following innings. He has extended his lead at the top with 42 wickets in 19 innings and a stellar average of 22.00, the best of the team. He continues to be the leading contender in the upcoming fixture as well.
