The 32nd match of Big Bash League 2022-23 is scheduled to play between Melbourne Renegades and Hobart Hurricanes on Saturday, 7th January 2022 at Docklands Stadium, Melbourne

Nic Maddinson is the key and opening batsman of Melbourne Renegades but had got his knee injury in the previous match and we don’t think that he will be available for the next matches. They won their most recent match against Melbourne Stars with a handsome margin of 33 runs where they lost the toss and were asked to bat first. The performance of their batting order was not very good. They scored just 141 runs in 20 overs. Mackenzie Harvey was the most successful batsman with 32 runs to his name on 23 balls with the help of two boundaries and one huge six. Martin Guptill also performed well and scored 32 runs.

Shaun Marsh was the other batsman who scored 32 runs. He faced 35 balls and smashed five boundaries. Aaron Finch is the best performer of the Renegades and we think that he will perform well in this match. Remember that he had scored 237 runs in the tournament. Melbourne Renegades won the previous match due to the best performance by their bowling unit. They defended the target of 142 runs on the board and leaked 108 runs in 20 overs. Tom Rogers was the most successful and highest run-scorer from their side with five wickets to his name in four overs against 16 runs. Mujeeb Ur Rahman also had an outstanding performance with the ball. He picked up two wickets in four overs while he was charged with just seven runs. Will Sutherland and Kane Richardson picked one wicket each while Akeal Hosein was the only bowler who failed to pick any wicket.

The 32nd match of Big Bash League 2022-23 is going to be held at Docklands Stadium, Melbourne. We had observed in the previous matches played here that the pitch here at this venue is good for batting. The track is slower than the others we have seen and helps the spinners quite a bit. We are hoping that the surface is bound to get slower and be a bit more difficult for batting in this match. A score of 185 is going to be tough to chase.

The weather forecast in Melbourne is predicting some clouds around on match day but the weather forecast does not predict rain. We should be able to have a full uninterrupted match.
