Both teams are in contention to reach the playoffs. Adelaide Strikers are placed fifth, with four wins and as many losses in eight matches. A win over Melbourne Renegades will push them to third in the points table.
Meanwhile, Melbourne Renegades have won five of the nine matches. Adelaide Strikers defeated Hobart Hurricanes in the last game, after they chased 229, ending their four-match losing streak. Meanwhile, Melbourne Renegades also defeated Hobart Hurricanes in the last game.
The wicket should be a good one to bat. Adelaide is not a very big ground and there is not much on offer for the pacers. Spinners get some help but short boundaries are a big disadvantage to them here. Strikers chased 229 in the last match played here.
The weather will be bright and sunny with temperatures ranging between 31 and 17 degrees.

Matthew Short is the second-highest run scorer of the tournament with 321 runs in eight matches. Short scored a blistering century in the last game to help Strikers chase 229.
Martin Guptill gave signs of a return to form in the last game as he scored 36 runs in just 19 balls. Guptill is a big player but is going through a lean patch. The innings in the last match will give him a great deal of confidence.
Aaron Finch has enjoyed a decent run with the bat for Melbourne Renegades. Finch has scored 242 runs in nine matches, including two fifties. The former skipper will be a key player for the Renegades in the coming game.
Henry Thornton has been magnificent so far in BBL 2022. Thornton has taken 16 wickets in just 7 matches at an average of just 13.19.
Tom Rogers has been in great touch this season. He is the leading wicket-taker of the tournament with 17 wickets in nine matches. If Rogers continues his form, Melbourne Renegades will have a great chance of continuing their winning run.
