BBL 2022/23 – Hobart Hurricanes vs Melbourne Renegades, match preview, predicted lineups
Hobart Hurricanes take on the Melbourne Renegades on Saturday in BBL 2022/23 as the season moves ahead. Renegades come into this game as the favourites.
Date and Time : 24th December 2022, 3:30 PM (Local)
Venue : Blundstone Arena, Hobart
Hobart Hurricanes have not had the best of starts to their BBL season and are 6th in the points table after 3 games with just 2 points. They will be looking to get to the winning ways.
The Hurricanes batting have been getting the runs and will look to be at their best. Bowling wise they will need to be stopping the run flow and demand more.
Coach Griffith will require his men to get the job done to earn two crucial points.
On the other hand, Melbourne Renegades have been the best team of the tournament so far and the only one which remain unbeaten. They are on 2nd spot with 6 points after 3 games. They will look to continue the winning run.
The Gades batting have been quiet good so far and have scored as they need the same. In terms of their bowling they can be more clinical.
Head coach David Saker will have his men ready for another battle.
Coming to the wicket, it will be a good one for batting.
