Kent will lock horns with Middlesex in a South Group T20 Blast fixture at the Spitfire Ground in St Lawrence on Friday.
Kent had a sub-par T20 Blast campaign last year, winning just five of their 10 games. They will be looking to turn things around this season and beat Hampshire by 38 runs in their T20 Blast 2021 opener.
Middlesex also flattered to deceive in the T20 Blast last season, managing just three wins in 10 games. They started their T20 Blast 2021 campaign with a 54-run loss to Surrey and will be eager to turn things around as soon as possible.

Pitch report
Kent will have a better understanding of the wicket at the St. Lawrence Stadium as they played their T20 Blast 2021 opener against Hampshire at the same venue. Although there was a little bit of lateral movement in the initial overs, the batsmen still played their shots until the pitch slowed down a bit in the middle overs.
In the second innings, medium pacers and spinners dominated the game. 180 is the average first innings score on this ground.
