Who will win today Big Bash match: Sydney Sixers vs Melbourne Renegades
Pitch Report
This ground has just hosted one BBL game so far. The first batting score in that game was 176 runs, and it was chased down by the Sydney Sixers. One side of the boundary is very small here, and we can expect a batting-friendly wicket.
Sydney Sixers preview
The defending champions Sydney Sixers have won six of their seven games, and they defeated Brisbane Heat in the last one. Josh Philippe is the 2nd highest run-scorer of the season so far, whereas Moises Henriques is the 4th highest. The form of James Vince is a concern, but he is a quality player. Ben Dwarshius, Sean Abbott, and Hayden Kerr will lead the pace attack, whereas Steve O’Keefe will be back for this game. Sean Abbott is looking in brilliant form with both bat and the ball.
Probable XI: Josh Philippe, James Vince, Moises Henriques, Daniel Hughes, Jordan Silk, Daniel Christian, Shadab Khan, Sean Abbott, Ben Dwarshius, Steve O’Keefe, Hayden Kerr.
Melbourne Renegades preview
The Renegades have won one of their six games, and they need to bounce back. The Renegades are too much dependent on Aaron Finch’s batting, whereas Nic Maddinson will miss this game. Sam Harper scored a half-century in the last game, but the rest of the batters need to step up. Kane Richardson and Reece Topley will lead the pace attack, whereas Zahir Khan is the leading spinner. The bowling is the strength of this side, but James Pattinson will miss this game.
Probable XI: Sam Harper, Aaron Finch, Mackenzie Harvey, James Seymour, Jake Frazer-McGurk, Mohammad Nabi, Jack Prestwidge, Zak Evans, Kane Richardson, Reece Topley, Zahir Khan.
