We have entered the business end of the Vitality T20 blast and the games are coming thick and fast. Kent will lock horns with Essex on Wednesday, 7th June, at the St Lawrence Ground in Canterbury, Kent, at 11:00 PM IST. Hampshire has displayed some good cricket in the tournament so far. They have played five matches in the tournament and managed to win three. Some of their young players have stood up and performed well under pressure. The team management will be hoping for some senior players to stand up and deliver the good in this fixture.

On the other hand, Kent has been struggling with form in this tournament. They have managed to win just a single game of the five matches they have played. Kent is currently languishing at the point table in the South Group and needs to win this match to gain positive momentum in their campaign. They are coming off a loss against and will be raring to get back to winning ways in the T20 Blast. The match promises to go down to the wire with both teams well-matched.
