The batting unit of the Melbourne Renegades looks very fragile apart from Aaron Finch. They need to be at their best with the bat to win this game. The Hobart Hurricanes will start as the favourites to win this match.
Ben McDermott: Ben McDermott has been in exceptional form in the last two games. He has scored 57 and 53 in the last two games respectively. He is one of the best batters in the BBL and can take down any bowling attack on his day. McDermott will be an excellent captaincy pick.
Aaron Finch: Aaron Finch will be a top captaincy option for this match. He is the highest run-scorer at the Docklands stadium with 1127 runs at an average of 38.86 including 11 fifties. Finch will be the best batter for his team.
Akeal Hosein: Akeal Hosein has been the best bowler for the Renegades this season. He has bowled very consistently and 12 wickets to his name in BBL 12. Akeal is handy with the bat as well. He will be an ideal captaincy choice in fantasy cricket.
Mujeeb ur Rahman: Mujeeb ur Rahman will be an excellent differential pick for this game. He has been in good form and will be a key player for the Renegades in this game. He bowled very economically and picked up 2 wickets in the last game.
Zak Crawley: Zak Crawley batted in the middle order but he played really well in the last game. He scored a brilliant 54* in the last game and helped his side reach a big total. Crawley is another great differential pick.
Nathan Ellis: Nathan Ellis is not in the best of forms this season but he is a very talented bowler and will be an ideal differential pick in your fantasy teams. He bowls with the new ball and then in the death overs.
Asif Ali: Asif Ali is batting way too low to fetch some points in fantasy cricket. He is a hard hitter and can score big on his day but his fantasy value, currently, is very low. He will be our player to avoid in this game.
