Hobart Hurricanes vs Melbourne Renegades Match Prediction

Melbourne Renegades are off to a dream start to this edition of the Big Bash League. They have made it three in three wins this season and are second only to Adelaide Strikers who have had similar success so far this season.
Their opponents in this match, Hobart Hurricanes find themselves lagging in fifth place with a solo win in three games played so far. Hobart is coming from a defeat against Sydney Sixers in a rain-curtailed match.
In a match reduced to 14 overs, the bats could not finish the 138 runs chase. After the top order stumbled, Asif Ali gave a glimpse of hope with his 41 runs knock but they fell short by 6 runs eventually. Shadab Khan was impressive once again with the ball for Hobart Hurricanes.
On the contrary, Melbourne Renegades defeat Brisbane Heat in an exciting low scoring match and won their third successive game of the season. Chasing a mere 138, Renegades were 4 down for just 9 runs. Then came in the muscle power of Andre Russel who swung the game in favour of Renegades with his 57 runs knock.
Russell was supported by Finch (31) and Akeal Hosein. Hosein is turning out to be a true all-rounder for the Renegades. He scalped 3 wickets in addition to the 30 runs he scored.
The duo will now compete against each other at the Bellerive Oval, Hobart in Match 14 of the Big Bash League 2022-23 season.
Hobart Hurricanes vs Melbourne Renegades Chance of Winning
Melbourne Renegades are having a dream start this season. But we think that the party might be over in this encounter against Hobart Hurricanes.

We are siding with Hobart Hurricanes to win this match with a 55/45 win probability.
