Melbourne Renegades vs Perth Scorchers Prediction & Match Preview – BBL 36th Match

Melbourne Renegades have three wins and five defeats, and a heavy away loss to bottom-placed Thunder has all but ended their finals chances. They finish with two matches against Scorchers and Strikers, both teams in a tight race themselves.

Josh Brown has 305 runs from eight innings at a strike rate of 160.52, while Tim Seifert has 219 at about 148. Oliver Peake and Mohammad Rizwan have passed 160 runs each. Gurinder Sandhu leads the attack with 18 wickets, though he goes at just under ten an over, Jason Behrendorff and Will Sutherland have 11 between them, and Adam Zampa must keep Perth’s hitters in check.

Perth Scorchers bounced back from a last-ball defeat to the Renegades with a convincing win over the Strikers in Adelaide, returning them to the top two. Mitchell Marsh made 88 off 51 balls after his Hobart century, Finn Allen is back, and Aaron Hardie has 254 runs at a strike rate of 159. Ashton Turner and Cooper Connolly have both passed 170, with Connolly also taking nine wickets at an economy of 6.91. Hardie and Mahli Beardman have 13 wickets between them, though Perth still want more regular wicket-takers.
