KEN vs YOR Prediction, 11Wickets Fantasy Cricket Tips: Playing XI, Pitch Report & Injury Update – County Championship 2021, Group 3

Preview:

Both Kent and Yorkshire, two teams who are in Group 3 of County Championship 2021, have started their campaigns with a draw. Kent started off with a game against Northamptonshire, where they scored a mammoth total of 445, thanks to Darren Stevens’ century.

But the Northants were equal to it and they scored 434 runs, which meant a draw was the only possible outcome. On the other hand, after conceding 330 runs in the first innings against Glamorgan, Yorkshire were bundled out for less than 200. But Adam Lyth’s century in the second innings saved the game for them. Confidence wise, Kent will be at a better place, but Yorkshire too will fancy their chances, now that they have the services of Joe Root.
