Melbourne Renegades and Perth Scorchers will play in the 17th game of the Big Bash League 2021-22 at the Docklands Stadium, Melbourne. We will cover REN vs SCO Dream11 Prediction, Probable Playing 11, and Fantasy Cricket Tips.
Melbourne Renegades:
Melbourne Renegades have won one out of three matches this season and are currently at the bottom of the Big Bash League points table.
Mackenzie Harvey is opening the innings and has already scored two fifties this season, and Sam Harper has also batted decently. Except for these two players, the others have struggled to even score runs in the last three matches. The batting unit has been in poor form.
The bowlers have been doing a far better job compared to the batsmen. Zahir Khan and Kane Richardson have consistently picked up wickets in the last couple of matches. Nabi and Prestwidge managed to get one wicket each in the previous game.
Renegades have a good opening pair and bowling attack, but they lack batters who can carry on the momentum.
Perth Scorchers:
Perth Scorchers have been unbeaten this season and are currently at the top of the Big Bash League points table with 13 points.
A new opening pair, Kurtis Patterson and Josh Inglis, opened the innings for the team. Patterson batted brilliantly, scoring 78 runs, but Inglis was out for a duck. At No.3, Marsh played a decent inning, but Munro and Turner have struggled to score runs in the last two matches. Ashton Agar scored quick 30 runs and gave a good finish in the end.
The bowlers have been in extraordinary form in every match this season. Andrew Tye has picked up wickets in every game and is currently the leading wicket-taker for the season. Agar and Hatzoglou picked up two wickets in the last match, and Tymal managed to get one.
Scorchers look undefeatable now, and they are only going from strength to strength with every match.
