The 32nd match of the KFC Big Bash League 2015-16 will see Melbourne Renegades take on Adelaide Strikers. The final twenty20 clash of the league stage is all set to take place on January 18, 2016 (Monday) at Etihad Stadium in Docklands (Melbourne). Play will commence at 7:40 PM local time. With Adelaide Strikers already through to the semifinals and in top form, it will be interesting to see how Melbourne Renegades fare against them. It pretty much seems to be a do-or-die situation for the Renegades who must ensure a win in this contest if they are to strengthen their chances for a place in the semis.
Positioned comfortably at the top of the table with 12 points, Adelaide Strikers are the first team in this year's BBL T20 League to book a birth in the semifinals. Having won 6 out of their 7 games, they clearly are one of the favorites to clinch the title. With a strong batting line-up, a sharp bowling attack and with all the key players clicking at the right time, they have been a hard side to beat in this competition. Batting, bowling or fielding, they have emerged as a strong side in all the three departments. The momentum is with them and their confidence is sky high at the moment. Players like Brad Hodge, Mahela Jayawardene, Jake Lehmann and Travis Head have all put up good performances so far, making them worth wagering on for this upcoming contest.
Melbourne Renegades are currently placed at the 4th spot in the points table. Having lost 4 out of their 7 games, it is crucial for them to ensure a victory in this upcoming match against the Strikers. Melbourne Renegades have managed to secure 6 points in their kitty so far in this year's BBL T20 Tournament. A better net run-rate puts them slightly ahead of Sydney Thunder, Brisbane Heat and Hobart Hurricanes who are also at 6 points each. Nevertheless, Melbourne Renegades look equally solid on paper. With the likes of Chris Gayle, Aaron Finch, Dwayne Bravo, Cameron White and James Pattison in their squad, the team has the necessary firepower to rattle any opposition on a given day. Desperate for a win on the 18th of January, it will be exciting to see the Renegades take the field with all their guns blazing.
Reviewing the recent performances of both the teams in the Big Bash T20 League, it is the Adelaide Strikers that clearly wins by a mile. But having said that, Melbourne Renegades with a fine mix of international experience and young talent, can give us a surprise. Also, it could be that the Strikers might rest some of their key players for this match to keep them fresh for the semifinal, thereby increasing the hopes of the Renegades.
Melbourne Renegades: 1.87, Adelaide Strikers: 2.06
