Melbourne Renegades vs Sydney Thunder Dream 11 Prediction: Best picks for REN vs THU Big Bash League 2020

The Big Bash League will begin the 2021 New Year with a clash between second placed Sydney Thunder and the seventh ranked Melbourne Renegades in the first cricket clash of the year. Sydney Thunder ended 2020 on a high with a magnificent 75-run win against the Melbourne Stars while the Melbourne Renegades continued to struggle with a two-wicket loss to the Sydney Sixers who are currently on top of the table. In the previous encounter between the Sydney Thunder and Melbourne Renegades, it was the Sydney Thunder that got the better of Aaron Finch’s team by a massive margin of 129 runs. The Melbourne Renegades’ Net Run-Rate of minus 2.7 is the worst for any side in the Big Bash League and they face a huge task.

With their Net Run-Rate so low and with the half-way stage approaching, Melbourne Renegades will have to notch up some big wins if they are to stay in contention for the playoff race. On the other hand, Sydney Thunder are part of a crowded top of the league clash as they are in second with just one point behind their crosstown rivals Sydney Sixers. Hobart Hurricanes are level on 15 points with Sydney Thunder but their net run-rate is lower than Sydney Thunder, who have the best in the 2020/21 Big Bash League.
