KET VS GLO Dream11 Team Prediction| Gloucestershire vs Kent English T20 Blast | Match Preview

The two South group sides will collide once again as they faced off last week. Gloucestershire, who are at present at number six of the South Group table, look in bleak form as they won 1 of their 6 matches. Conversely, Kent look good as they stand at number two in the table only behind Sussex with 6 wins in 7 matches, which is better than the league leaders since Sussex have only won 5 of their 7 games, but since they haven’t lost a game this season, their NNR also scores higher than Kent.
