Lancashire Lightning vs Kent Spitfires prediction

Lancashire Lightning have been a strong home team in the T20 Blast for a number of years and their depth of squad allows them to cope with the loss of players through England duty. That remains the case heading into this quarter-final, which will see the onus fall on players such as Liam Livingstone, Phil Salt and Luke Wood. James Anderson could also feature having performed well in the group stage.

Kent Spitfires made it through a tough South Group and with men’s Hundred winning captain Sam Billings guiding them, they always have a chance. Zak Crawley had a good tournament and is a crucial wicket for Lancashire to take at the top of Kent’s order, as is Tawanda Muyeye, another Oval Invincibles player.

But Lancashire have the home advantage and a proven track record of winning at Emirates Old Trafford. Their bowlers know how best to utilise conditions and they bat deep. Therefore, it’s well worth backing the Red Rose to reach finals day.
