Melbourne is a true pitch, with the ball bouncing steeply from length to length. The new ball may be difficult to time at first, but it will become easier as the game progresses. The weather in Melbourne will be bright and sunny on match day.
Melbourne Renegades vs Melbourne Stars Prediction
The Melbourne Stars’ big win over Adelaide gives the team some hope. They will also look to extend their winning streak, as they have momentum and form on their side. However, if you want to be on the safe side, go with the Renegades.
The Melbourne Renegades have won three of the last four meetings between the two teams, and the form of Finch, Harper, and Rogers is too much to overlook, even if the squad wasn’t spectacular against Adelaide. This match is expected to be won by the Melbourne Renegades. Check out the odds at Cricbaba!
Melbourne Renegades is the favourite to beat Melbourne Stars at the odds of 1.70.
