Who will win today match
Kent will win this game. They are in desperate need of a win and they will have to look to do some tactical change, which can make that happen in today’s game. Drummond, their captain, will have a tough task to get their 1st win in this game, with a couple of good players like Denly and Crawley in the opposition, as his main batsmen. Whereas Yorkshire has got a very good team, and with Root’s return, they are a very strong team, who is looking to go the top, but Kent will hopefully give a fight in this one and win it. The players like Thompson and Willey will be the players to look out for in the YOR vs KET Dream 11 Today match prediction.
