THE PREDICTION
Kent Spitfires have no time to rest on their laurels after the reigning champions lost the first match of their title defence at home to Somerset. Two days later, they welcome fierce rivals Essex Eagles to Canterbury in what should prove a more straightforward encounter. The Spitfires have won their last five successive T20 Blast fixtures against Essex at Canterbury, with their last defeat coming all the way back in 2016. Having already played one T20 fixture, their players aren’t expected to suffer from the sort of rust that the Essex team could, with this being the visitors’ first game of the competition. The Eagles’ squad is desperately short on both star power and experience, so it is no surprise that many are tipping them not to trouble the top four in the South Group. Unless inclement weather intervenes, it would be a significant shock if Sam Billings’ side were not to pick up the two points in this encounter.
