REN vs STA Dream11 Predictions - BBL 2021/22 | 13 Jan

You thought they’d be getting their season back on track in the 2021/22 Big Bash League with two consecutive wins recently, but Melbourne Renegades have slipped again and are coming into this game on the back of two more consecutive losses. They now have only 3 wins in 11 games and they’re now playing at Geelong in the second game of this double header, after Thunder plays Hurricanes at the same venue.

We’re talking about BBL 11 Match 48 where they’re taking on Melbourne Stars who have one of the best teams on paper but they’ve been hit hard by Covid-19 cases this season and only have one win in their last four outings this season. Most of their players are out of isolation now and we expect revenge after Renegades won the reverse fixture by 5 wickets.

Numbers

Head to head in last 5 games, Stars leads 3-2.
Melbourne Renegades last two games – 80 and 105.
Jake Fraser – 5 of his 7 innings were single digit scores.

Melbourne Renegades

They have been failing with the bat continuously but in all these games, one constant is that of Kane Richardson managing to pick up wickets and we’d rather rely on their bowling attack than on the inconsistent batting order. Kane picked up a couple in the last game and coming back into the side, Cameron Boyce also bowled a brilliant spell of 2/15 in his 4 overs and both of them should make your REN vs STA fantasy team today.

Jake Fraser has been consistently failing with the bat with a top score of just 30 this season and it’s time they consider someone else for his slot in the team. On the other hand, captain Nic Maddinson has also been poor with the bat but he’s more experience and can bounce back, and has also been getting wickets this season. We’d like to see a change where Mackenzie Harvey bats at the top again, and we’ll have him in our REN vs STA Dream11 team.

Melbourne Stars

I’ve really loved what I’ve seen from Brody Couch this season and it’s not a coincidence that he’s their top bowler. He may not always finish his quota of 4 overs but he’s their designated bowler in the death overs which means more chances of wickets, so make sure you pick him. The overseas bowlers have also been going well with Haris Rauf bagging 7 wickets in 4 games and the Afgani spinner Qais Ahmad also growing in confidence with every game.

Having scored four consecutive fifties, I’m not too sure why Stars decided to drop Joe Clarke to the middle order but he needs to go back on top and if yes, he’s surely in our MyFab11 (sign-up with code “READAD46“) REN vs STA fantasy team. Hilton Cartwright is another must have because he may have only one fifty in BBL 11 but he’s gone at a strike rate of 147+ this season and has been in really good form so far.
