Melbourne Renegades vs Melbourne Stars Betting Tips
Melbourne Stars to score more fours
Melbourne Stars have a splendid line-up of batters in the team. They have been pretty efficient with scoring the boundaries in the competition. Thomas Rogers (23) and Glenn Maxwell (20) are top boundary hitters in the team. Melbourne Stars have hit 101 fours in 8 games at an average of 12.625 per game. Whereas Melbourne Renegades managed to reel in only 77 fours in 7 games at an average of 11 fours. This is much less than the former and indicates a fragile batting order of the team. In their last clash, MS scored 11 fours whereas MR could only hit 8 boundaries in the game. Looking at this trend, Melbourne Stars should be able to hit more fours than the Renegades in their next meeting as well.
Match Prediction Best Odds
Melbourne Renegades vs Melbourne Stars Toss Prediction
Docklands Stadium, Melbourne, has a flat surface, and the outfield here is fast. We have seen sides put up big scores at this venue in the past. Fast bowlers get a hint of assistance from the track, but it is a challenging venue for the spinners as the shorter boundaries don't leave a margin for error. The side that wins the toss would like to take advantage of the conditions by opting to bowl first.
Weather Report
We will see overcast skies over Melbourne on January 13. We expect a flat, but the weather will make it challenging for the batsmen. They must get their eyes set on to score runs on this wicket. The temperature will remain between 19-22 degree Celsius on the game-day.
