Kent are having a poor campaign so far, with just 3 wins from their 7 matches, and they come into this game after losing their last 3 games in a row. It has been a tough run for them, and they will be looking to turn things around quickly.
The batters have done their job at times and even put up a good total in the previous game. Daniel Drummond scored 37 runs, Zak Crawley made 27, and skipper Sam Billings played a brilliant knock of 64 runs. So, they do have batters who are getting runs and keeping the side in the game.
The main problem has been with the bowling. They have not been able to match the effort of their batters and have let the side down on many occasions. The bowling attack also looks short on experience, and a lot of responsibility has fallen on Matt Milnes.
They will need a much better bowling effort in this game because it will not be easy against the in-form Hampshire batting line-up. If the bowlers do not improve, things could get very difficult for Kent once again.

Hampshire have been doing a fabulous job in the tournament so far, winning 6 of their 7 matches and sitting 2nd on the points table. They started their campaign with a loss, but since then they have not looked back and have gone on to win 6 games in a row. That winning run will give them a lot of confidence going into this match.
In the last game, their batters once again did well against a quality Yorkshire bowling attack. Joe Weatherley played a brilliant knock of 63 runs off just 33 balls, while Tristan Stubbs added 27 runs in the middle order and Hilton Cartwright chipped in with 19 runs. This shows the side has good batting depth, and once again they will be a team to watch out for.
With the ball, they have a very consistent attack as well, with Chris Wood, Sonny Baker, and Scott Currie being the main wicket-takers for the side. The trio picked up eight wickets together in the previous game and once again will be tough for any opposition to handle because of their tight and consistent line and length.
Key Players: James Vince, Joe Weatherley, Liam Dawson

Toss Prediction: Kent to win the coin toss
Hampshire go into this match with confidence after winning 6 games in a row and being one of the most in-form teams in the tournament. They have looked strong in both batting and bowling, and that balance has been the key to their success so far. Kent, on the other hand, are having a tough campaign with only 3 wins from 7 matches and are coming into this game after three straight losses.
With Hampshire carrying much better form and momentum, they look clearly ahead going into this match.
