THE LOWDOWN

MELBOURNE RENEGADES

  • Melbourne Renegades were successful in the Melbourne derby by a resounding margin for T20 cricket (33 runs) the last time these two rivals met in the men’s BBL this season.
  • Most recently though, the Renegades were beaten by Adelaide Strikers by 20 runs after conceding a big score of 202/4 despite winning the toss and bowling first.

MELBOURNE STARS

  • A crucial and resounding triumph by Melbourne Stars by nine wickets at home to Adelaide Strikers could prove a turning point for their season, at least that’s what the Stars will desperately be hoping for.
  • It was an excellent all-round showing from the Melbourne Stars bowlers, which saw them skittle the Strikers out for just 108 before a calm unbeaten half-century from opener Tom Rogers underpinned a comfortable chase.

THE PREDICTION

Melbourne Renegades come into this big derby showdown on the back foot, but their inconsistent means that they are just as likely to pull themselves together and conjure up a top-drawer performance, as they are to potentially collapse when facing up to a Melbourne Stars bowling attack high on confidence. The match taking place at Marvel Stadium could play a key part in the outcome, with the Stars having won just once away from home in the competition so far. This has the makings of a nervy classic which could go down to the very last ball. Based on their more reliable batting over the course of the tournament, back the Melbourne Renegades to edge it.
