KET vs ESS Dream11 Team Prediction, Fantasy Cricket Tips & Playing 11 Updates for Today's T20 Blast Match - June 20th, 2021

The South Group of the T20 Blast 2021 will see Essex take on Kent at the St Lawrence Ground in Canterbury on Sunday.

Kent have been one of the teams to beat in the T20 Blast this season with four wins in five games. With their star players Jack Leaning and Matt Milnes firing on all cylinders, it has been smooth sailing for them so far. The additions of Sam Billings and Zak Crawley will only add more firepower to their batting unit, handing them the favorites tag ahead of Sunday's fixture.

Meanwhile, Essex have flattered to deceive this season with just one win from five T20 Blast games. Although they have a strong roster in place, Essex haven't fired as a unit so far. The addition of Daniel Lawrence should provide a boost as they seek to return to winning ways. With Jimmy Neesham and Simon Harmer in their ranks, they will fancy their chances against Kent, making for a cracking T20 Blast game at the St Lawrence Ground on Sunday.

Pitch Report

A relatively high-scoring T20 Blast game is on the cards, with the batsmen set to dominate proceedings. Although the pacers will get the ball to move around early on, it should skid nicely on to the bat. With rain expected to play a part, both teams will look to chase upon winning the toss. 180 is considered a par score at the venue in the T20 format.
