THE LOWDOWN
MELBOURNE RENEGADES
- Melbourne Renegades were narrow losers in their opening Big Bash fixture away at Sydney Sixers, eight runs the margin of defeat after they failed to chase down 176, finishing on 167/7 in the end.
- All-rounder Will Sutherland was impressive across all departments, taking two wickets for just 21 runs and scoring an unbeaten 51 from just 30 balls, including four maximums.
PERTH SCORCHERS
- Perth Scorchers have had to wait to get their campaign underway, but the reigning back-to-back Big Bash League champions are now all set to go as they bid for a historic ‘three-peat’.
- Mitchell Marsh, Josh Inglis, Aaron Hardie and captain Ashton Turner form a fantastic domestic core who underpin much of Perth’s recent success, then you have proven pace bowlers such as Jhye Richardson, Jason Behrendorff and the ‘Wild Thing’ Lance Morris.
THE PREDICTION
Although Melbourne Renegades are likely to have benefitted from already playing once this season, whilst Perth Scorchers are yet to get underway, the defending champions are good and experienced enough as a collective unit not to let this affect them too badly. All bases are covered on their end and the firepower they contain at the top of the order remains the Big Bash benchmark at present. Back the Scorchers to get off to a winning start and condemn Melbourne Renegades to two defeats from two.
BETTING TIP: PERTH SCORCHERS TO WIN
