Hampshire vs Essex Betting Odds

Hampshire to have a better opening partnership than Essex

Hampshire and Essex go head to head after both sides had contrasting results in the opening game of the season. Hampshire went head to head against defending champions Glamorgan and they dominated the match. Hampshire eventually won the game by 72 runs. They made the playoffs last season and would be hoping to do the same this term. On the other hand, Essex struggled against Nottinghamshire in the opening game as they lost the game by 51 runs. They struggled to make an impact last season as they won three games and were knocked out of the tournament. We believe Hampshire openers would dominate once again in the game, they had an opening stand of 68 against Glamorgan and will once again have a better opening partnership in the upcoming game.
