Melbourne Renegades have struggled in the last two BBL tournaments but will back themselves to get a positive result against Hobart Hurricanes.
The Hurricanes got an important victory over Adelaide Strikers on Monday, winning by 7 wickets and 9 balls to spare. They will see this as a must-win fixture.

Jack Prestwidge came in for the ill Kane Richardson on Boxing Day against Perth Scorchers. We expect Richardson to have recovered and to return to the side in this game. The pressure is on the experienced batters to learn from rookie Mackenzie Harper at the top of the order.
Melbourne Renegades have lost their last four games with defeats against Adelaide Strikers, Brisbane Heat and Perth Scorchers twice in BBL 2021.
Mackenzie Harvey, Aaron Finch, Nic Maddinson (c), Sam Harper (wk), Jake Fraser-McGurk, Mohammad Nabi, Will Sutherland, James Pattinson, Kane Richardson, Reece Topley, Zahir Khan
Batsmen:Aaron Finch, Nic Maddinson, Mackenzie Harvey (VC)
All Rounder:Mohammad Nabi, D Arcy Short
Wicket Keeper:Matthew Wade, Ben McDermott (C)
Bowler:Kane Richardson, Thomas Rogers, Nathan Ellis, Riley Meredith
The Strikers were on the receiving end of some exceptional big hitting from Ben Duckett in their last game with plenty of the bowlers recording expensive figures. However, there were some encouraging signs with the bat from Jonathan Wells, Thomas Kelly and George Garton. With no injury worries, we are predicting the same XI for this match.
Hobart Hurricanes ended their two match losing streak with an impressive win over Adelaide Strikers on Monday.
Matthew Wade (c) (wk), Ben McDermott, D’Arcy Short, Peter Handscomb, Tim David, Harry Brook, Jordan Thompson, Nathan Ellis, Tom Rogers, Riley Meredith, Sandeep Lamichhane
Melbourne Renegades dominated Hobart Hurricanes in their early exchanges but the Hurricanes have fought back in recent years.

Hobart Hurricanes are favourites to add another win to their strong recent form over Melbourne Renegades.
Melbourne Renegades will be looking to Aaron Finch to rival the big scoring openers for Hobart Hurricanes.
We are backing Aaron Finch, Mackenzie Harvey and Sam Harper as our batting recommendations for Melbourne Renegades. Harvey is a great player for the future and the present.
Ben McDermott, Matthew Wade and D’Arcy Short are our picks for Hobart Hurricanes with the bat. McDermott is aiming for his second successive BBL century.
For Melbourne Renegades, Kane Richardson, James Pattinson and Reece Topley are our bowling tips. Richardson is a fine bowler who was missed in the last game.
For Hobart Hurricanes, we are recommending Riley Meredith, Sandeep Lamichhane and Tom Rogers with the ball. Meredith has taken 3 wickets in both of the last BBL games.
Hobart Hurricanes will not get a better opportunity to make it back to back wins in this season’s BBL as they come up against an out of sorts Melbourne Renegades. We expect to see a high scoring game with Hobart Hurricanes emerging victorious.
