SUR vs KET Dream11 Team Prediction, Fantasy Cricket Tips & Playing 11 Updates for Today's T20 Blast 2021 Match - July 9th, 2021
The South Group of the T20 Blast 2021 will see Surrey take on Kent at the Kia Oval in London on Friday.
Kent head into this round of fixtures as table-toppers with seven wins in 11 games. Riding on the exploits of their batting unit, Kent have sealed a playoff spot, but would love to keep their momentum intact. Although Zak Crawley isn't available for Kent, they will have a roster filled with youth and experience and will ideally start the T20 Blast game as the clear favorites.
Their opponents Surrey aren't pushovers by any means. Blessed with a resourceful bowling attack, Surrey will look to return to winning ways with a potential knockout spot hanging in the balance. However, they will need to make do without Will Jacks, who isn't available due to national commitments. But they have enough in the tank with Laurie Evans being key.
With both teams eyeing a crucial win in the upcoming T20 Blast fixture, a cracking game of cricket beckons at the Kia Oval.

Pitch Report
The Kia Oval has seen its fair share of runs this season and should play host to another high-scoring T20 Blast encounter. The pacers will be key on this surface, with swing and bounce available in abundance. However, the ball should skid on nicely to the bat, helping the batsmen to play their strokes freely. The spinners will need to vary their pace and length to keep the batters in check and scalp wickets. 170 should be par at the venue, with both teams likely to prefer chasing upon winning the toss.
