BBL 7, Match 10: Melbourne Renegedes vs Perth Scorchers – Match Predictions

As the tournament slowly nears the business end, so does the level of competition and intensity of the performances between the various Big Bash League (BBL) outfits in the 7th edition of the tournament. This is nothing short of a treat for the BBL fans out there who are thirsty and desperate for some high-quality cricketing action in the T20 format.

The next clash of the BBL promises to deliver exactly that as the Melbourne Renegades who have been unbeaten in the tournament so far winning both the clashes by a margin of 7 wickets battle it out against the last season’s champions Perth Scorchers who have themselves recorded a dominant performance in both their games.

A loss spells the end of an unbeaten streak for one of the outfits between the two which could massively impact the momentum and confidence of the players and also something which neither franchise will be willing to stomach.

Melbourne Renegades

The Renegades have been able to rack consecutive victories on the back of dominant performances by the team as a whole. Aaron Finch as the captain has failed to make an impact on the tournament so far which has not had an influence on the confidence of the team also indicating the depth in their batting.

Cameron White has led from the front with the willow racking up eye-catching performances while Jack Wildermuth, Brad Hogg and Kane Richardson have delivered the goods with the ball.

Predicted XI: Aaron Finch (C), Marcus Harris, Cameron White, Tom Cooper, Brad Hodge, Dwayne Bravo, Mohammad Nabi, Tim Ludeman, Kane Richardson, Brad Hogg, Jack Wildermuth

Perth Scorchers

The Perth Scorchers enjoy the services of one of the best bowling line-ups in the league with the likes of Mitchell Johnson, Andrew Tye, David Willey, Jhye Richardson spewing venom with the ball and arguably the  T20 best bowler in current times, Andrew Tye.

Captain Adam Voges has led from the front with the bat leading the side to victories in both the games so far. Ashton Agar and Hilton Cartwright have further contributed with the willow delivering the goods as and when needed. The Scorchers enjoy one of the most settled outfits in the league and will be severely tested to the hilt against the Melbourne Renegades who enjoy a formidable outfit themselves.

Predicted XI: William Bosisto, Micheal Klinger, Hilton Cartwright, Ashton Turner, Adam Voges, Ashton Agar, David Willey, Josh Inglis(wk), Jhye Richardson, Andrew Tye, Mitchell Johnson

We believe that the Perth Scorchers can continue their winning streak against the Renegades.
