Kent and Sussex are poised to face off in the upcoming South Group fixture on June 30 at St Lawrence Cricket Ground in Canterbury. The game is expected to kick off at 11 pm IST.
Kent are racing their way to the knockout phase of the tournament. They are currently ranked fourth in the North Group Points table with seven wins out of 12 games. Their NRR currently stands at 0.431. Kent have done remarkably well in their last five games, winning them all in emphatic fashion.
Sussex have so far had a very scratchy season as they find themselves in the seventh position in the points table with five wins in 12 games. Their NRR currently stands at -0.879.
