Preview for REN vs STR Dream11 Contest:

Adelaide Strikers and Melbourne Renegades will be opening their campaign with a riveting clash in Match 3 of the Big Bash League (BBL) 2021-22 on Tuesday (December 7).

The two teams will be facing up at the Docklands Stadium in Melbourne with the aim to make a winning start to the latest edition of the BBL.

Renegades, especially, need be up and running from the very beginning, having finished bottom of the points table last summer with only four wins.

For Strikers, who also didn’t have the best of seasons – finishing in the Eliminator after seven wins in the league stage – it’s an opportunity to gain momentum behind them and carry that forward.

Probable Playing XI

Melbourne Renegades – M.Harvey, Unmukt Chand, S.Harper (wk). J.Fraser-McGurk, J.Seymour, Mohammad Nabi, Will Sutherland, James Pattinson, Kane Richardson, Cameron Boyce, Reece Topley

Can Strikers keep the Renegades at bay in REN vs STR BBL encounter?

Last year’s edition of the BBL saw Melbourne Renegades level their own little two-match league contest 1-1 with Adelaide Strikers. However, it was the Strikers who were the happier of the two sides at the end of the league stage, making it through the playoffs while Renegades stood last in the standings. Strikers will thus be feeling they have an edge heading into this one, considering the Renegades might take some time to pick themselves back into form and a winning run.

REN vs STR Dream11 Captaincy Picks

1. Rashid Khan (9.5 credits) – easily the most dominant spin bowler in T20 cricket right now, Afghan legend Rashid Khan will be hoping to continue his great form through the BBL. Rashid was the stand-out bowler for Sunrisers Hyderabad (SRH) in IPL 2021, taking 18 wickets with an economy rate of 6.69.

2. Jake Weatherald (9 credits) – Weatherald was Strikers’ most consistent batter in the last BBL season, scoring 433 runs at an average of 36.08 while maintaining a very good strike-rate of 141.04. He made three half-centuries in the competition.

3. Mohammad Nabi (9.5 credits) – prominent Renegades allrounder from Afghanistan, Nabi didn’t have the best of time with both bat and ball in the last BBL. But hardly anyone can doubt the experienced cricketer’s ability to turn it on for his team, having proven a crucial cog in Renegades’ wheels in the past.

REN vs STR Dream11 Budget Picks

1. Daniel Worrall (8.5 credits) – Worrall, the right-arm medium quick, played his part quietly in Strikers’ journey last summer. He took 10 wickets for his team while maintaining a respectable economy rate of 7.29.

2. Wesley Agar (8.5 credits) – Agar was Strikers’ top wicket-taker of the previous edition of BBL. The fast-bowler took 22 wickets in his 15 outings while giving away 8.35 runs an over.

3. Unmukt Chand (8.5 credits) – Chand will be making his Renegades debut, becoming the first Indian male ever to play the Big Bash League. He will be determined to make a good start, having got good game time under his belt through his time in the USA recently.
