Show Preview
The BBL continues tonight when the Perth Scorchers travel to Geelong’s GMHBA Stadium to take on the Melbourne Renegades. Join The Roar for live scores and a blog of the match starting at 7:10pm AEDT.
These two sides are arguably the biggest disappointments of BBL|09. Even the most loyal of Renegades fans would be putting a line through their season after six straight losses. The Scorchers are in marginally better shape but, realistically, a further loss tonight would likely end their chances of a semi-final appearance.
The Renegades’ largest problem is that they don’t have too much batting depth after Aaron Finch and Shaun Marsh. While both these batsmen have averaged in the 30s, neither has gone to make a matchwinning score.
From a bowling perspective, Kane Richardson has shouldered much of the load, with Harry Gurney and Richard Gleeson performing well below expectation.
It doesn’t get any easier for the Renegades, with Aaron Finch about to travel to India as part of the Australian one-day squad.
The Scorchers have similar batting problems to the Renegades, where Mitchell Marsh and Cameron Bancroft have scored 50s this season but no-one has gone to make a big score.
From a bowling perspective, the Scorchers are in better shape. Jhye Richardson is returning to his best, while both Chris Jordan and Fawad Ahmed have taken eight wickets in the competition.
Prediction
With the Renegades’ season likely over, the Perth Scorchers simply have more to play for. I think they have more bowlers capable of taking wickets, and while the Renegades will want to win in front of their home fans, the Perth Scorchers will keep their season alive.
Perth Scorchers by 20 runs or five wickets.
