TEAMS PREVIEW
Melbourne Renegades Preview
The Melbourne Renegades were set a modest target of 150 in their previous game against Sydney Sixers at the SCG. However, they were bowled out for just 115 in 19 overs. It was a poor batting performance where the highest score was 36 by Aaron Finch. The Renegades have a solid batting unit and can put down this performance to a bad day.
Finch is the team’s leading run-getter so far this season with 154 runs in 5 matches at a strike rate of 105.47. He would definitely need to score at a better click. Captain Nic Maddinson (129 runs in 5 matches at 141.75 has also been among the runs. Shaun Marsh played his first match of the season against the Sixers and looked solid during his stay of 28 off 25 balls.
The Renegades have one of the finest bowling attacks this year. Akeal Hosein has been the most consistent one, picking up 10 wickets in 5 matches at an economy of 6.36. Tom Rogers has 8 wickets at 8.44. Mujeeb Ur Rahman (6 wickets at 6.85) is the ace in their pack and produce a spell of 3-29 off 4 overs in the match against the Sixers.
Melbourne Renegades Predicted Playing XI:
Nic Maddinson (c), Martin Guptill, Shaun Marsh, Aaron Finch, Jonathan Wells, Peter Handscomb (wk), Akeal Hosein, Will Sutherland, Tom Rogers, Kane Richardson, Mujeeb Ur Rahman

Sydney Sixers Preview
Sydney Sixers seem to be coming into their groove this season and are on a roll right now, winning three back-to-back matches. In their previous game, they took down the Renegades by 34 runs after posting just 149 on the board. It was a terrific bowling performance led by Ben Dwarshuis’ spell of 4-17. This was only his second game of the season and he’s likely to play a regular role in the remaining matches for the team.
Sean Abbott with 9 wickets at an economy of 9.27 is the side’s leading wicket-taker this season. Left-arm pacer Hayden Kerr (7 wickets in 5 matches at an economy of 8.77) has also been consistent.
On the batting front, the Sixers have had to depend on Josh Philippe (131 runs in 5 matches at a strike rate of 136.45) and Jordan Silk (126 runs in 5 matches at 120). Philippe also top-scored with 55 (off 40 balls) in the match against the Renegades. Daniel Christian has had a disappointing season thus far and will be eager to make a big impact down the order.
Sydney Sixers Predicted Playing XI:
Kurtis Patterson, Josh Philippe (wk), James Vince, Moises Henriques (c), Jordan Silk, Daniel Christian, Hayden Kerr, Sean Abbott, Ben Dwarshuis, Jackson Bird, Todd Murphy

MLR vs SYS
Winning Prediction
Sydney Sixers have now won all the last 4 completed games they have played against the Melbourne Renegades. They have gained good winning momentum and their bowling looks really sharp. The Renegades would have to put their poor batting show behind them and hope their batters fire in this match. Their bowling is dependable and should do well on this surface. However, the Sixers are on a roll currently and thus have an edge.
Back the Sydney Sixers as the winners of this clash.
