Kent vs Gloucestershire Predictions

Kent should have no trouble burying a Gloucestershire six that has lost all five of their games in this season’s Vitality Blast.

Kent’s Daniel Bell-Drummond has scored 61 & 100 in his last three innings.
Kent’s Tawanda Muyeye scored 70 off 40 balls against Somerset.
Gloucestershire’s Cameron Bancroft scored 52 off 47 balls against Glamorgan.
Gloucestershire’s Miles Hammond has scored 38, 24 & 36 in his last 5 innings.

Head-to-Head

Kent have won four and lost one of their last five matches against Gloucestershire.

Kent Form

Kent bounced back from their last-ball defeat to Surrey by beating Somerset by four runs.

Tawanda Muyeye (70 off 40 balls) and Daniel Bell-Drummond (100 off 49 balls) added 158 for the first wicket. Kent’s middle-order chipped in to secure a challenging score of 228/5 off their 20 overs.

Joey Evison (2/24, econ 6.00) was the pick of the Kent bowlers as they battled hard to limit the Somerset batters to 224/6 off their 20 overs, thus securing a four-run win.

Kent Team News

Kent are in good form and unlikely to make any changes to their team.

Gloucestershire Form

Gloucestershire suffered their fifth defeat in five matches when they lost to Glamorgan by 40 runs.

Ajeet Singh Dale (3/17, econ 4.25) bowled superbly as the Gloucestershire attack kept the Glamorgan batters in check at 118/4 in the 14th over. The home side rallied late to post 189/6 off their 20 overs.

Gloucestershire struggled to get to grips with the Glamorgan bowlers and were restricted to 149/9 off their 20 overs. Cameron Bancroft top-scored with 52 off 47 balls.

Gloucestershire Team News

Gloucestershire have endured a nightmare season in the Vitality Blast. They will be looking to make some changes to their top-order as they look to rescue their season.

Verdict

Kent v Gloucestershire

I am backing Kent to win. I am also backing Daniel Bell-Drummond to top score for Kent.

Cameron Bancroft is a good bet to top score for Gloucestershire.
