T20 Blast 2020: Essex vs Hampshire – Fantasy Tips
Hampshire:

James Vince is yet to deliver a good performance for his side while Shaheen Afridi was ordinary in the middle. Fuller has been regular contributor alongside Holland and Mason Crane. Chris Wood has the capability to deliver.
Essex:
Once again, it is going to be Delport, who will have the burden of performing well for his side. He is failing to do it in the batting but coming good with the ball. The likes of Westley, Varun Chopra and Lawrence should join the party while the bowlers need to change their tactics.
