The Renegades gave top of the table Perth Scorchers a very close game on Sunday but were unable to get the win they needed. Their place in the play-offs is still not confirmed.
Adelaide Strikers are finishing the group stage in very poor form and it will require a big turnaround if they are to beat the Renegades at the Docklands Stadium. However, they have talented players who are capable of this.

Melbourne Renegades Team News & Playing 11
REN Team News
No players reported any problems after the defeat to Perth Scorchers in Match 52 at the Perth Stadium. The Renegades have turned to experienced players over recent games and we expect the same with victory required in this game to confirm their place in the play-offs.
REN Key Players
- Aaron Finch - The skipper ended a poor run of form with an uncharacteristically aggressive 76 not out from 35 balls on Sunday. He hit five sixes in the innings.
- Shaun Marsh - The vastly experienced left-hander was pushed up to the top of the order in the last game. He scored 54 runs from 34 balls against Perth Scorchers.
- Tom Rogers - There was another wicket for Rogers in the defeat against Perth Scorchers. Only the top two BBL wicket takers of all time have dismissed more batters this season than Rogers.
Melbourne Renegades have lost three of their last four BBL games with a victory over bottom of the table Melbourne Stars their only win.

Adelaide Strikers Team News & Playing 11
STR Team News
Although the results have been very disappointing over the last two weeks, Adelaide Strikers have a fully fit squad to choose from with no players going down with injuries or illness since the last match. However, we may see some movement in the batting order.
STR Key Players
- Matthew Short - Dismissed for a four-ball duck on Friday, the opener’s average in BBL 2022-23 has now dropped to under 40. However, his team need him to find his form again for this game if they are to get back to winning ways.
- Adam Hose - The 30 year old right-handed middle order batter top scored for the Strikers in their last game against a very strong Perth Scorchers bowling attack.
- Wes Agar - The fast bowler has taken 17 wickets at an average of 19.58 in the tournament and should enjoy the conditions in Docklands.
It is now four successive defeats for Adelaide Strikers who last won a BBL match against their opponents for this game, Melbourne Renegades.
Adelaide Strikers Predicted Playing 11
Travis Head (c), Matthew Short, Thomas Kelly, Alex Carey (wk), Adam Hose, Colin de Grandhomme, Harry Nielsen, Benjamin Manenti, Cameron Boyce, Wes Agar, Peter Siddle

Who will win Melbourne Renegades vs Adelaide Strikers T20 Match?
Adelaide Strikers were the early pace-setters in the tournament but their team is now without Chris Lynn and Rashid Khan. However, they still have more match-winners with bat and ball than Melbourne Renegades.
🏆 Melbourne Renegades vs Adelaide Strikers Prediction
A win for either team will see them finish in the top five and progress to the play-off stage and even a defeat for Melbourne Renegades may still see them qualify as well. However, both teams come into this game in poor form and they require their experienced players to step up and produce a big performance. Melbourne Renegades have some top players like Martin Guptill, Shaun Marsh and Aaron Finch who have seen it all before but have not been in brilliant form over this campaign. We think Adelaide Strikers have the batters who will deliver and are backing them to win this match.
