Preview:

On the opening day of the Royal London One-Day Cup 2021, Kent County Cricket Club will be coming up against Durham County Cricket Club at the Beckenham ground, which is a secondary home ground of Kent Club. Both teams have got some good players which can help produce an interesting battle.

Kent had an underwhelming season in the 2019 Royal London One-Day Cup and managed to win only two of their eight games in that tournament. On the other hand, Durham had a good tournament, winning four out of their eight matches, but failed to qualify for the knockout stage.
