Kent captain Sam Billings could once again emerge as a dangerous customer for Sussex.The 34-year-old England international scored unbeaten 34 runs off 19 balls in his last outingagainst Essex. He smashed as many as six fours. The innings is expected to mark his return to form, and therefore we back Billings to be amongst runs once again on Friday.

Our Prediction

Favorites to win

Kent

Sussex have defeated Kent in their last three outings, but they could find it difficult to make it four in a row against Sam Billings' side. After the 47-run win against Essex in their last match, the momentum is on Kent's side. Sussex lost their last match against Surrey by 48 runs. While the law of average is also against Sussex, their chances of going past higher-ranked Kent is also low because of high-profile players like Denly, Sam Billings, Jack Leaning, Matthew Parkinson, who would be up against them. While Kent have crossed the 200-run mark thrice already in this season, Sussex have done it only once, and that too in their first match of the T20 Blast 2025. Two of the top-five run-scorers in the competition are from Kent, while there is no Kent batter even in the top-ten list. Kent should manage to beat Sussex on the back of their form and more experienced players.

• Kent to win - 1.97 (PariMatch)
• Sussex to win - 1.78 (PariMatch)
