MELBOURNE RENEGADES PREVIEW: STILL YET TO GET OFF THE MARK 

Melbourne Renegades have begun their season in nightmare fashion, having lost both their two games played. After a poor showing with the ball saw them fall to Sydney Sixers in a high-scoring affair, the Gades were comfortably defeated by a formidable looking Brisbane Heat last time out.

PERTH SCORCHERS PREVIEW: AIMING TO COMPLETE MELBOURNE DOUBLE

Perth Scorchers have already taken down one Melbourne side this season, defeating the Stars by 13 runs at the WACA. Now they look to complete the double, this time against the Renegades and this time, in enemy territory to cement their place in and around the top spots of the WBBL table.

MELBOURNE RENEGADES BETTING ANALYSIS

Whilst she’s not quite hit the heights she would’ve hoped to as of yet, you feel like it’s just a matter of time before Deandra Dottin comes off in a big way. The big-hitting West Indian overseas star newly crowned T20 World Cup winner can take the game away from her opponents very quickly with her boundary clearing abilities and warrants backing to score over 0.5 match sixes in this one.

PERTH SCORCHERS BETTING ANALYSIS

Perth Scorchers’ Beth Mooney may only have scored 31 in her side’s opening game, but it was still the Scorchers’ top score of the innings and laid down a marker for things to come down the line. On what is expected to still be a good pitch in what will be the second of three fixtures played at CitiPower Centre over the course of 24 hours, Mooney is well worth backing to record 30+ runs this time around.

MELBOURNE RENEGADES VS PERTH SCORCHERS EXPERT PREDICTION

When you go on a losing streak in a short-form T20 tournament such as this, it can prove very difficult to turn things around. Especially when taking on tough competition. This is the scenario facing Melbourne Renegades right now and it’s hard to see an opponent of Perch Scorchers’ quality letting them off the hook. Back the visitors to pick up the points.
