Daniel Bell Drummond to score above 22.5 runs @ 1.80 (Bet 365)

The Kent batsman has been a backbone of the side for ages, which gives us so much confidence to invest on this bet. In the last five matches this season, his scores were - 81, 22, 25, 72, 28, amassing a total of 228 runs at an astounding average of 57 runs per innings. Even in the last season of the T20 Blast, the right hander scored a total of 317 runs at a rate of 26.41 runs per innings, with 6 scores of above 22 runs in the last 10 innings. Well, if you that's it, think again, cause we have more reasons for you to spend your hard earned money.

The top-order batsman has historically performed well in home conditions - at the St. Lawrence Ground, in Canterbury, with scores of 25, 2, 64, 43 in the last four matches, scoring 134 runs at a rate of 33.5 runs per innings. Moreover, in 34 matches at the venue, he has piled up 794 runs at an average of 25.61 runs per innings. But, his overall feat in T20s is much brighter, with him scoring 2650 runs in 92 matches at a rate of 31.55 runs per innings. There's no way we can overlook this particular bet.

Luke Wright to score 23.5 runs @ 1.83 (Bet 365)

Luke Wright, unlike Daniel Bell Drummond, is a much experienced player and a player built for this format of the game, Despite his ripe age of 35, he's been one of the best batsman in the tournament so far, with scores of - 83, 40, 4, 82, 31, scoring a total of 240 runs at an impressive average of 48 runs per innings. Even in the last season, the right-hander scored a total of 338 runs in 14 matches, at a rate of 35.27 runs per innings, with as many as nine scores north of 23 runs, which surely tells us a tale.

Considering that Sussex is playing away from home, Luke Wright's scores in the last three away matches - 83, 4, 48, 25, having racked up 160 runs at an average of 40 runs per innings. Overall, for Sussex, the right-hander has played a total of 153 matches, scoring a total of 4263 runs, scoring at a rate of 35.27 runs per innings. The Englishman has played 8 matches at the St. Lawrence Ground, in Canterbury, having scored 241 runs at an average of 40.17 runs per innings. What are you waiting for? Just place your bet.

Sussex to hit more boundaries @ 2.0 (Bet 365)

Wow, that looks like a lucrative deal, with double the return on offer. Sussex have never been outnumbered in terms of the boundaries hit in this edition of the T20 Blast, with them hitting 55 in four completed matches (almost 14 hits per match), while conceding 47 (less than 12 per match). On the other hand, Kent have hit 67 boundaries (13.4 per match), conceded 61 in the same, but have been the second best side on two occasions. Even though Kent is playing their home match, we have enough evidence to invest the money on the visitors.

In the last three away matches, Sussex have never been outnumbered by their rivals, with their batsman sending a total of 43 balls to the ropes at a rate of over 14 per match, while conceding just 38 boundaries (less than 13 per match). Even in the last five H2H matches between these two sides, only once have Kent had the last laugh, with their tally of 58 fours, at a rate of 11.6 per innings, while they have shipped in a total of 69, at an average of almost 14 boundaries oer match. With double the investment on offer, there's no option but to invest on this particular bet.
