In Match No. 5 of the Big Bash League, the Melbourne Renegades will face the Hobart Hurricanes. This match will be played at Simonds Stadium, located in the city of Geelong. Geelong has been the home venue for the Renegades, and this will be the only match the stadium hosts this season. In the previous BBL season, the ground also hosted a match between the Renegades and the Scorchers. However, that game was abandoned after just 7 overs due to the poor condition of the pitch, which was causing awkward bounce.

However, this time, it is expected that the REN vs HUR match will proceed smoothly without any issues. Moreover, there is no forecast of rain in Geelong tomorrow, which is good news. Fantasy players will also look to showcase their skills in this match, and to assist them, we are presenting our Dream11 prediction for the REN vs HUR clash.

REN vs HUR Preview

The Melbourne Renegades lost their opening match of the season to the Sydney Sixers, while the Hobart Hurricanes will kick off their campaign in Geelong. The Renegades are being led by Will Sutherland, whereas Nathan Ellis will be seen captaining the Hurricanes.

REN vs HUR Dream11 Prediction

In their first match, the Renegades scored 167 runs against the Sydney Sixers. Jake Fraser-McGurk and Josh Brown opened the innings for the Renegades and got off to a quick start, but both lost their wickets after crossing 20 runs. Coming in at No. 3, Tim Seifert played a crucial knock, scoring 55 runs off 42 balls. Captain Will Sutherland was their standout performer, contributing 36 runs and also taking 2 wickets. Sutherland is an excellent choice for captaincy or vice-captaincy in Dream11 teams.

On the other hand, Hobart Hurricanes boast star players like Tim David, Nathan Ellis, and Chris Jordan. Since the Geelong venue is bowler-friendly, picking 4 bowlers in your Dream11 team would be a wise decision. Additionally, there’s a good chance that all-rounders will get an opportunity to contribute with the bat as well. Here’s our Dream11 Team for REN vs HUR match.

Wicket-keepers: B McDermott, T Seifert (VC)

Batsmen: T David, J Fraser-McGurk, J Brown

All-rounders: C Jordan, W Sutherland (C)

Bowlers: K Richardson, A Zampa, R Meredith, N Ellis

Simonds Stadium Geelong Pitch Report for REN vs HUR match

Simonds Stadium offers bowler-friendly conditions. The last two BBL matches played here were low-scoring, with an average first-innings total of 131 runs. Both pacers and spinners are likely to have an impact. Scoring in the powerplay will be crucial as the pitch tends to slow down as the match progresses, making run-scoring increasingly challenging. The team batting first will aim to reach at least 160 runs to put up a competitive total. The team winning the toss might opt to bat first, as chasing could become more challenging.
