Preview:

Worcestershire will host Kent in the Group 2 match of the English One Day Cup on Sunday. Worcestershire have prepared well for this tournament, as they won the warm-up against Herefordshire by 7 wickets. Joe Leach will be leading the side, whereas Brett D’Oliveira is the man to watch out for.

On the other hand, Kent are looking for their first win in this tournament. They lost to Durham in their opening encounter by a massive margin of 103 runs. They conceded a lot of runs, and chasing a mammoth total of 405 runs is always difficult on any kind of surface.

WOR vs KET Risky Captaincy Choices:

Charlie Morris has the most scalps for Worcestershire in this year’s T20 Blast, picking up 17 wickets in 13 matches. You can take a risk and pick him as your fantasy team skipper.

Heino Kuhn scored only 6 runs in the last game against Durham. Considering his experience of playing at the highest level, it’s worth a risk to try him as your fantasy skipper.

Player you should avoid:

James Logan didn’t bowl well and went 7 runs per over. It’s better to avoid him while making your fantasy teams.
