Surrey’s D40 (Disability) cricket squad is preparing to host Essex in a highly anticipated D40 Quest League match at the iconic Kia Oval on Sunday June 22nd. The 40-overs-a-side hardball fixture promises an exciting display of talent and competitive cricket.
Following a strong start to their D40 Quest campaign, the Surrey side will be looking to continue their momentum on home turf. Having previously secured a significant victory against Sussex at The Kia Oval, the team is confident in their ability to perform against a formidable Essex outfit.
“We’re incredibly excited to welcome Essex to The Kia Oval for what promises to be a fantastic D40 encounter,” said Kavin Hemraj, Surrey D40 Coach. “Our squad has been working hard, and we’re eager to put on a strong performance for our home crowd. These matches are not only about competition but also about showcasing the incredible talent within disability cricket and inspiring future players.”
