Leicestershire vs Kent Betting Odds

Kent to have a better opening partnership than Leicestershire

Leicestershire and Kent go head to head after both sides have had a contrasting campaign thus far as both teams lie on opposite ends on the points table. Leicestershire have been head and shoulders above the rest as they have already sealed the top spot this season. So far this season they have managed six wins and would be hoping to close out the season with maximum points in the remaining games. On the other hand, Kent have struggled to make an impact this season as they have managed two wins thus far and are currently eighth on the table. Both teams went head to head earlier this season and both sides managed to share the spoils. What makes this tip so enticing is the fact Leicestershire have conceded a bigger opening partnership in each of the last three matches which makes us believe Kent will end up with a better opening partnership in the upcoming game.
