Kent struggling to find form in the ongoing County Championship Division One
However, Kent is struggling in the current County Championship Division One, recording just one win and two draws in its initial six games. The team currently occupies the second-last spot in the points standings. Arshdeep Singh’s debut is particularly significant because of their matchup against table-toppers Surrey since he hopes to make a strong impact and help Kent’s comeback in the league.
