TEAMS PREVIEW
Melbourne Renegades Preview
It wasn't the kind of start that Will Sutherland and his team would have liked. They went down by Sydney Sixers in their opening game by 5 wickets. The side batted well but needs a better show from the bowlers. They must win this game and avoid repeating their poor show in the first half as in the last season.
Jake Fraser-McGurk and Josh Brown started well in the last game, and the team expects them to deliver an electrifying start. Tim Seifert batted well in the last game, and he must add runs in the middle order with Mackenzie Harvey and Laurie Evans. Sutherland and Hassan Khan add depth to this batting lineup and must add runs in the death overs.
The bowling attack struggled in the last game. Thomas Rogers and Fergus O'Neill bowled poorly in the last game with the new ball, and the team expects a better show. Adam Zampa is the key bowler in the side, and he must do well in the middle overs with Kane Richardson. Hassan Khan and Sutherland will look to do well in the supporting role.
Melbourne Renegades Predicted Playing XI:
Will Sutherland (c), Jake Fraser-McGurk, Josh Brown, Tim Seifert (wk), Mackenzie Harvey, Laurie Evans, Hassan Khan, Fergus O'Neill, Thomas Stewart Rogers, Kane Richardson, Adam Zampa

Hobart Hurricanes Preview
Nathan Ellis' side didn't have a great season in the last edition. The side won only four out of ten games and didn't qualify for the playoffs. The team will look to make a strong start in the season with a win. They have a good record against the Melbourne Renegades, and Ellis would like a strong show from his players to extend this record.
Matthew Wade is an experienced player and must deliver a strong start with Caleb Jewell. The middle order wasn't consistent last season, and the team would like to see a good show from Macalister Wright, Ben McDermott, and Mitchell Owen. Tim David is a good finisher and looks forward to doing well with Nikhil Chaudhary and Chris Jordan.
Riley Meredith and Nathan Ellis are key bowlers for the team, and they must strike early and put the Renegades out under pressure. The team will look for a good show from Chris Jordan and Nikhil Chaudhary in the middle overs. Tim David, Patrick Dooley, and Mitchell Owen complete a formidable attack for the team.
Hobart Hurricanes Predicted Playing XI:
Nathan Ellis (c), Matthew Wade (wk), Caleb Jewell, Macalister Wright, Ben McDermott, Tim David, Nikhil Chaudhary, Chris Jordan, Patrick Dooley, Riley Meredith, Mitchell Owen
Hobart Hurricanes Actual Playing XI:
Ben McDermott, Nathan Ellis, Chris Jordan, Riley Meredith, Mitchell Owen, Timothy David, Nikhil Chaudhary, Matthew Wade, Shai Hope, Billy Stanlake, Waqar Salamkheil
PITCH AND WEATHER CONDITIONS
Weather Conditions
Geelong will have clear skies on December 17. We expect to see more challenging batting conditions like in the past. There would be assistance for the bowlers in this game. The average first-innings score is 141 runs, and the side batting first would like to have 160 or more on the board to feel confident.
MLR vs HBH Pitch Report
Simonds Stadium, Geelong, is a small ground, and there have been high-scoring games in the past. Batting is easy on this track as the ball comes to the bat nicely. Fast bowlers can move the ball in the air and have done well. It is a challenging venue for the spinners as they have little assistance on this surface.
Toss: To Bowl
Most teams in the past have won games chasing scores at this venue. The wicket is good here and allows batters to play their strokes freely. However, it can be tricky at the start of the game, creating doubts in the batsmen's minds. Hence, the side that wins the toss would have little hesitation in opting to bowl first.
MLR vs HBH
Winning Prediction
The Melbourne Renegades will be low on confidence. Their struggle from the last season continued in their first game this season. The bowling attack must deliver the goods for the team to win this contest. The Hobart Hurricanes have a strong batting lineup and enjoy a good record against the Renegades. It will be a close game, but the Hurricanes will start favorites.
