Stanley Park

Lancashire and Kent met in the Division One last year and are poised to clash in the County Championship Division Two from June 22 to 25, 2025. Taking the field at Stanley Park, Blackpool, the game is scheduled to commence at 3:30 PM IST.

Lancashire vs Kent Chances of Winning

Lancashire added a second defeat to their tally after taking on Leicestershire in the last match where the former’s 206-run first innings turned out to be inadequate. Leicestershire breezed past the target and went into the lead with 457 runs on the board. This put the Manchester-rooted team under pressure and their response was just as feeble as their attempt to put on a competitive score, having been bundled out for a measly 248. In the end, they faced an innings-and-3-run defeat.

Kent are in a similar plight at the moment as they come into this match after a huge drubbing at the hands of Derbyshire. The latter piled on a whopping 587-run total before declaring and Kent had their work cut out. They scored 326 runs in their first innings with the bat; Ben Compton’s 156 was the major contribution while skipper Daniel Bell-Drummond scored 61 runs. In the second innings, they scored 247 runs before being all out, falling short by an innings and 14 runs.

Lancashire vs Kent Betting Tips

Lancashire to score over 29.5 before first dismissal @ 1.83 (Parimatch)

In the last five matches, Keaton Jennings has been Lancahsire’s only recurring opener. Having opened with Michael Jones and George Bell in three of those matches, the pairs had fluctuating partnerships of 5, 30, 16, 50, 18 and 5 runs. However, with the introduction of Luke Wells in the previous two games, there has been a major improvement in their opening stands as the duo secured competitive totals of 74, 25, 8 and 62 runs. Their trajectory is expected to go upwards here on out and another big stand is on the cards.

Lancashire vs Kent Toss Prediction

During the 2024 season of the County Championship Division One, Stanley Park hosted a single match and it was between Lancashire and Durham. The latter elected to field first but it did not play out in their favor as Lancashire put on 300+ totals in both innings. For the upcoming game, too, the toss winning side will want to bat first.

Weather Report

A major 45% threat of rain is expected at Blackpool and light rain will cause disruptions with the temperature reaching 18 degrees Celsius.

Lancashire vs Kent Betting Odds

Lancashire to have a better opening partnership than Kent @ 1.71 (Parimatch)

Kent’s opening wicket has stagnated quite a bit this season and in the last three matches, Ben Compton and Joe Denly have put on mediocre stands of 29, 52, 1, 37, 5 and 39 runs. They have not been entirely effective together and they pale in comparison to Lancashire’s Luke Wells and Keaton Jennings. In their previous three encounters, the pair added 74, 25, 8, 62, 5 and 30 runs to the first wicket. The bookmakers rally behind the latter to secure a better total in the next game.

Lancashire vs Kent Best Batters

Marcus Harris to be Lancashire’s Best Batter

Marcus Harris was not a major contributor in the last match versus Leicestershire where he scored a combined total of 30 runs in two innings. His lead at the top remains unchallenged as he has a total of 825 runs in 14 innings and an outstanding average of 63.46. With three centuries and three half-centuries, he is the top pick for the upcoming game as well.

Ben Compton to be Kent’s Best Batter

As predicted for the previous encounter, Ben Compton top-scored for Kent with a brilliant 156-run knock in the first innings against Derbyshire and he missed out on his first half-century of the season, having been dismissed for 49 in the second innings. He has 688 runs in 14 innings and stands as their top batter overall, and with a stellar average of 52.92, he is expected to come out on top against Lancashire, too.

Lancashire vs Kent Best Bowlers

George Balderson to be Lancashire’s Best Bowler

George Balderson emerged as the top bowler for Lancashire in the solitary spell that he delivered, having taken three wickets in 27.5 overs with an economy rate of 3.80. He also leads the team’s bowling attack with 19 wickets in ten innings and an average of 32.57 which makes him the top choice against Kent.

Nathan Gilchrist to be Kent’s Best Bowler

Nathan Gilchrist was tied for second place in the last encounter against Derbyshire where his 24-over spell yielded eight maidens, one wicket and an excellent economy rate of 2.91. He has extended his lead at the top with 23 wickets in nine innings and an average of 26.34, making him the leading contender once again.

Our Prediction

Favorites to win

Lancashire

Lancashire and Kent are in nearly the same predicament this season as they occupy the last two spots in the Division Two standings, and the former are in the penultimate position with two defeats and five draws. Kent, albeit with two wins in the bag, stand last with four defeats and a single draw. Lancashire are favored by the bookmakers to take their first win of the season, especially since they have a 3-1 lead over Kent in the previous five head-to-head encounters.
