Somerset vs Kent Predictions


Somerset are in dominant form in the Vitality Blast, winning each of their opening five matches by five wickets or more. They are a great bet to beat Kent, who have lost two of their last three matches. 

  • Somerset’s Will Smeed scored 81* off 54 balls against Essex.
  • Somerset’s Tom Kohler-Cadmore has scored 23, 64, 21 & 25 in his last 5 innings.
  • Kent’s Tawanda Muyeye scored 37 off 31 balls against Surrey.
  • Kent’s Daniel Bell-Drummond has scored 60 & 61 in his last 5 innings.

Head-to-Head


Somerset have won three and lost two of their last five matches against Kent. 

Somerset Form


Somerset secured their fifth win on the trot when they beat Gloucestershire by six wickets. 

Lewis Goldsworthy was on fire with the ball for Somerset, taking 4/13 (econ 3.25) to reduce Gloucestershire to 75/5. The home side ended their 20 overs on 135/7. 

Somerset raced to a six-wicket win in the 18th over, with Will Smeed top-scoring with an undefeated 51 off 45 balls. 

Somerset Team News


Somerset are in brilliant form and are unlikely to make any changes to their team.

Kent Form


Kent slipped to two wins from their last three matches when they went down to Surrey by four wickets.   

Kent struggled to reach 171/7 off their 20 overs. Tawanda Muyeye (37 off 31 balls) and Joe Denly (40 off 22 balls) did their best to post a competitive score. 

Wes Agar (3/26, econ 6.50) knocked over three of Surrey’s top four but it wasn’t enough to deny the London side, who snatched a dramatic four-wicket win off the last ball of the match. 

Kent Team News


Kent have suffered another huge blow to their batting line-up, with Joe Denly set to miss out after injuring his finger batting against Surrey. Denly had scored 48*, 28, 21* and 40 in his last 5 innings for Kent. His place in the squad has been taken by Jaydn Denly.

Verdict

I am backing Somerset to win. I am also backing Will Smeed to top score for Somerset.

Tawanda Muyeye is a good bet to top score for Kent.
