THE LOWDOWN
MELBOURNE RENEGADES
- Melbourne Renegades are already guaranteed to finish outside of the play-off places, but with just one win from eight matches played they cannot complain about what has been a miserable season for them.
- This match represents Aaron Finch’s final professional T20 fixture, the former Australia captain has been a brilliant servant for both his country and the Renegades, so he’ll no doubt want to mark his farewell with one more big score.
MELBOURNE STARS
- Melbourne Stars have two matches remaining in their quest to finish in the top four, with the likelihood being that they will need to win both in order to qualify, piling on the pressure from their point of view.
- The Stars have won four of their last five games, however they are coming off the back of a resounding loss against Sydney Sixers, where they were comprehensively beaten by seven wickets.
THE PREDICTION
Although the Renegades are already eliminated from play-off contention, they still have plenty to play for in this particular showdown. Not only are inter-city bragging rights at stake, but so is the opportunity to give Aaron Finch the send-off he deserves. However, the Stars are the stronger team and it’s impossible to ignore how desperately poor the hosts have been throughout the competition, outplayed through most of it. Back Melbourne Stars to gain the two points they so desperately need.
