Kent vs Gloucestershire Preview
Kent and Gloucestershire lock horns in the Natwest T20 Blast for the second time in under a week at Canterbury. Gloucestershire won by six wickets when these sides last met.
Kent Spitfires will be hoping to continue their solid start to this year’s Natwest T20 Blast with a win against Gloucestershire at Canterbury. Our Kent vs Gloucestershire preview features a match that is made all the more interesting by the fact the sides played in the same competition a week previous.
Key Players to Watch
Kent have performed well so far in the competition, particularly with the bat and Joe Denly has been the stand out performer for the Spitfires. Denly scored a majestic century in his last innings and is averaging over 93 with the bat in the tournament this year. Benny Howell has been the star with the ball for Gloucestershire and will be key to their success in this match. Howell has seven wickets at just over 12 in the competition and his 4/14 against Kent was massive for inspiring victory.
Teams Recent Form
Ahead of our Kent vs Gloucestershire prediction, we first look at the recent form of the two sides heading into this match. Kent opened their blast account with a seven wicket win over Essex before being soundly beaten by Gloucestershire in their second match. They responded to that disappointment superbly with an eight wicket win over Surrey. Gloucestershire were held to a thrilling tie by Middlesex in their first outing and then were left frustrated after their win over Kent when their match against Sussex was abandoned due to rain.
Kent vs Gloucestershire Head-to-Head
The two sides have met five times in the Natwest T20 Blast, with Gloucestershire leading the way with three wins. Kent have managed two wins against Gloucestershire and will be hoping for a third in this match.
Outright Odds
- Kent to win – 1.72
- Gloucestershire to win – 2.10

Kent vs Gloucestershire Prediction
Gloucestershire have the advantage of having beaten Kent in this format already this season, but there is no doubting Kent are the stronger on paper and will be buoyed by the fact they are back on familiar ground. Gloucestershire will need to remember this is a side they have already beaten and keep the confidence and self-belief that comes with that.
Kent vs Gloucestershire Free Betting Tips
Canterbury is great for betting, and we have seen some big scores in the tournament so far. In close games, it is always experience that tends to prevail so with that in mind the betting focus is on the two players with plenty of international experience. Thisara Perera is a dangerous all-rounder from Sri Lanka, while New Zealand’s Jimmy Neesham is a rock-solid betting option.
