MLR vs SYT Prediction & Betting Tips, BBL 2020-21

Both Melbourne Renegades and Sydney Thunders have had contrasting results in the tournament. While Sydney Thunders are flying high with 4 consecutive victories, Melbourne Renegades are sliding down the hill with 4 back to back losses. 

The Renegades will be desperate to win but against Sydney Thunders, it won’t be easy. However, cricket is a very unpredictable game and there fans can hope that they can turn around the tables and halt this humiliating losing streak. 

Read on our preview as Melbourne Renegades take on Sydney Thunders in the 22nd match of the Big Bash League. The match will be played on the Carrara Oval and is scheduled to get underway at 6:15 PM local time.

There was a remarkable improvement in Melbourne Renegades performance in their last game against Sydney Sixers yet it wasn’t good enough to end their losing streak which has now extended to 4 matches. 

Renegades batting looks very fragile at the moment. Shaun Marsh and Aaron Finch are their two best batsmen, both of them have been pretty disappointing in the tournament. Yes, they did got few runs in the last match but will they be able to back it up with another consistent performance is a highly debatable topic.

Similarly, Sam Harper, Riley Rossouw, Mohammad Nabi are also having a torrid time with the bat. On paper, Renegades are second to none but no matter how big a player you are, if you’re not performing, your team is bound to struggle, exactly what has happened with Renegades.

The bowling was pretty decent in the last match but we’re still uncertain to weather or not they’ll be able to deliver back to back performances. 

Renegades anyhow need to pull off a win in their next match to keep their hopes alive in the tournament but to their misery they are up against the best team of the BBL 2020-21.

Sydney Thunders have been absolutely brilliant and are coming back from 4 back to back victories. They have two 200+ scores in the last two matches and the margin of their victories are 129 and 75 runs. 

These stats are enough to prove that Sydney Thunders are at the peak of their game. Alex Hales joined the party and smashed a scintillating 71 off 29 in the last match. Usman Khawaja too have two good knocks under his belt in the last two games. Cullum Ferguson, Olivier Davis are also striking the ball beautifully. 

In the bowling department, Chris Green, Adam Milne, Daniel Sams, Tanveer Sangha are in top form. The way Sydney Thunders are playing at the moment, even the best teams will struggle against them and Melbourne Renegades is certainly not the best thus they have a very stern challenge ahead of them.
