𝐌𝐀𝐓𝐂𝐇 : Sydney Thunder vs Hobart Hurricanes𝐃𝐀𝐓𝐄 : January 08 ,Wednesday𝐓𝐈𝐌𝐄 : 13:45 PM IST𝐕𝐄𝐍𝐔𝐄 : Sydney Showground, Sydney Olympic Park, Australia𝐓𝐎𝐔𝐑𝐍𝐀𝐌𝐄𝐍𝐓 : Big Bash League, 2024-25 Two teams in the hunt for pole position in the 2024/25 BBL meet at the Sydney Showground on Wednesday evening. Sydney Thunder vs Hobart Hurricanes TV channels: The fans can watch the match live on Hotstar Live Streaming: Live streaming of the match will be available on the FAFA191 Cricket Exchange India and website. SYT vs HBH Match Prediction & Analysis The 2024/25 edition of the Big Bash League continues to deliver plenty of entertainment and excitement, and ahead of this game, all eight teams are separated in the table by only five points. The congested nature of the table owes something to the weather which prevented tournament pace-setters Sydney Sixers taking the field in their last match but also to the resurgence of Melbourne Stars who had looked down and out but have now won two in a row. TEAMS PREVIEW Sydney Thunder Preview Sydney Thunder have impressed so far in this campaign and although they lost their last game, against Brisbane Heat, they did well to even fulfil the fixture such was the length of their injury list! The on-field collision between Cameron Bancroft and Daniel Sams has already cost the team the services of the former for the rest of this BBL and this game is likely to come too soon for Sams who is recovering from concussion. There is good news on the availability front ahead of this match though with Australia’s latest golden-boy, opener Sam Konstas who made a name for himself with his confidence and brashness against India’s much proclaimed opening bowler Jasprit Bumrah, returning to the squad. He will open alongside the in-form captain David Warner. With the ball, Lockie Ferguson has been the standout performer this campaign although the 41 year old Dan Christian, who has come out of retirement due to the injury crisis, bowled with excellent control and variations in the last match. Hobart Hurricanes Preview Hobart Hurricanes made it four wins in a row when they beat Adelaide Strikers by five wickets with eight balls remaining on Sunday with the victory mainly thanks to the supreme lower-order hitting from Tim David who rightly took the Player of the Match award after hitting 62 not out from 28 balls. Earlier in the game, Afghan left-arm wrist spinner Waqar Salamkheil took 2/22 for the second game in a row and he will be hoping to find plenty of turn once more at the Sydney Showground. One thing the Hurricanes do have is plenty of match winners with the bat and opener Mitchell Owen has stood out thanks to his aggressive approach. With the ball, Chris Jordan continues to deliver wickets in spite of being in his 37th year. Weather Conditions According to the forecast there will be rain around Sydney for most of the day on Wednesday but it could all miss the Sydney Showground! If it does or if it doesn’t, the temperature will be no higher than 20 degrees, although the humidity levels will be touching 75% by the close. SYT vs HBH Pitch Report The Showground Stadium in Sydney is one of those venues where the batters never feel completely in and the bowlers always have a little encouragement. We predict a par score will be no higher than 175 and there will be assistance for the quicks as well as the spinners. Toss: To Bowl Although the last game at this venue was won by the team batting first, there had been a long advantage for the teams fielding first in previous fixtures. Therefore, we predict both sides will choose to bowl first if they win the toss.

𝐌𝐀𝐓𝐂𝐇 : Brisbane Heat vs Sydney Thunder𝐃𝐀𝐓𝐄 : January 06 ,Monday 𝐓𝐈𝐌𝐄 : 13:45 PM IST𝐕𝐄𝐍𝐔𝐄 : The Gabba, Woolloongabba, Australia𝐓𝐎𝐔𝐑𝐍𝐀𝐌𝐄𝐍𝐓 : Big Bash League, 2024-25 All three games at the Gabba this BBL has gone the way of the chasing side, indicating that the team batting second here will be at an advantage. Brisbane Heat vs Sydney Thunder TV channels: The fans can watch the match live on Hotstar Live Streaming: Live streaming of the match will be available on the FAFA191 Cricket Exchange India and website. BH vs SYT Match Prediction & Analysis This Monday, the Brisbane Cricket Ground will play host to match 25 of the BBL 2024-25, where the Brisbane Heat will take on the Sydney Thunder. With only two wins from six games, the Heat find themselves in a tough spot, currently occupying fifth place. In contrast, the Thunder are riding high in second place, having racked up 8 points from just five games. The Heat do have a strong recent record against the Thunder, having come out on top in their last three BBL meetings. That said, the Thunder’s current form, with three consecutive wins under their belt, suggests they have the edge going into this one. TEAMS PREVIEW Brisbane Heat Preview Brisbane Heat’s season has been a rollercoaster ride so far, with a strong start followed by a few setbacks. After kicking off the campaign with back-to-back wins, they’ve suffered three consecutive defeats, including a loss to the Melbourne Stars in their last outing. Their previous fixture against Sydney Sixers was abandoned without a ball being bowled. As they look to get back on track, the Heat will be relying on Nathan McSweeney to produce another impressive performance. With 129 runs in 5 innings, McSweeney is the team’s second-highest run-scorer and has the capability to anchor the innings and play a match-winning knock when needed. Sydney Thunder Preview Sydney Thunder are on a hot streak in the BBL, having suffered just one defeat and notched up four wins, with their latest triumph coming against the Perth Scorchers, where they pulled off a thrilling chase of 178 on the final ball. The team’s batting has been firing on all cylinders, with captain David Warner setting the tone, having scored 178 runs in 5 innings at an average of 44.50 and a strike rate of 148.33. The Thunder have suffered a huge blow with Cameron Bancroft being sidelined for an extended period due to the injury he sustained in the previous game. Daniel Sams will also miss out for the next four games because of a concussion. Sam Billings (139 runs in 5 matches) will have to step up big time In their absence. Weather Conditions The Brisbane Cricket Ground, commonly known as the Gabba, offers a balanced pitch for T20 cricket. Batters can enjoy even bounce, making shot-making easier, while fast bowlers gain assistance from the pace and carry. Spinners may find some grip as the match progresses. The weather in Brisbane will be warm and pleasant, perfect for a game of T20 cricket. BH vs SYT Pitch Report The average score batting first at Brisbane is 166 in domestic T20 cricket. This season, the top score at this ground was Brisbane Heat’s 175-7, achieved while batting second against Adelaide Strikers. This indicates that the venue is favorable for teams batting second when the target is around 170-180 runs.

Melbourne Stars vs Melbourne Renegades, BBLT20, Today Match Prediction

𝐌𝐀𝐓𝐂𝐇 : Melbourne Stars vs Melbourne Renegades𝐃𝐀𝐓𝐄 : January 04 ,Saturday𝐓𝐈𝐌𝐄 : 13:45 PM IST𝐕𝐄𝐍𝐔𝐄 : Melbourne Cricket Ground, Richmond, Australia𝐓𝐎𝐔𝐑𝐍𝐀𝐌𝐄𝐍𝐓 : Big Bash League, 2024-25 The BBL Melbourne derby is always a grand occasion and this one will be no different, under lights at the MCG on Saturday evening! Melbourne Stars vs Melbourne Renegades TV channels: The fans can watch the match live on Hotstar Live Streaming: Live streaming of the match will be available on the FAFA191 Cricket Exchange India and website. MLS vs MLR Match Prediction & Analysis With table-toppers Sydney Sixers losing their last game and bottom of the pile Melbourne Stars getting their first win of the season in their last match, the BBL table is suddenly a lot more congested than anyone expected! Ahead of this game, Match 23, the Sixers top the table with eight points but have Perth Scorchers, Sydney Thunder and Hobart Hurricanes trailing them by only two points. The two Melbourne sides are in the bottom half of the table at this stage but the Renegades are only two points behind the Scorchers in second place. It was a comfortable win for the Stars against Brisbane Heat on New Year’s Day and another victory in this game would certainly make the table squeeze together even more. TEAMS PREVIEW Melbourne Stars Preview With a target of 150 to beat Brisbane Heat, Melbourne Stars cruised home with 11 balls to spare, something which did not look to be on the cards when they found themselves 14/3 after one ball of the fourth over! The fourth wicket partnership between Dan Lawrence (64 not out) and captain Marcus Stoinis (62) was enough to get the Stars’ season up and running and even allowed them to lose Glenn Maxwell for a golden duck. As a result, the batting line-up should come into his derby fixture with plenty of confidence with the likes of Ben Duckett and Sam Harper also producing good numbers this season. Melbourne Renegades Preview The Renegades were beaten for the second game in a row in Match 20 when they went down by five wickets with 17 balls remaining against Adelaide Strikers at the Docklands Stadium. The defeat was confirmed long before the winning runs were hit from the first ball of the 18th over of the second innings, but there were times during the first innings, when opener Josh Brown was going strong, where the Renegades looked like potential match winners. They do have fluent white ball batters and they will always back one of Brown, Jake Fraser-McGurk, Tim Seifert or Jacob Bethell to deliver the goods in the top four positions. Tom Rogers and Adam Zampa both come into this Melbourne derby after taking two wickets each against Adelaide Strikers, and the left-arm spin of Jacob Bethell could also be handy as a left-field option in this game. Weather Conditions Although Saturday is forecast to be cloudy in Melbourne, the temperature is also expected to reach 36 degrees. By the time the lights are in full flow and evening has arrived, it will still be 30+ for this game. MLS vs MLR Pitch Report The MCG is one of the most inspiring grounds to play at in world cricket and short of the Boxing Day test, playing in front of a huge crowd in a Melbourne derby is also an experience to remember. We expect a good batting track with a par score of 180+. Toss: To Bowl The team fielding first won the last game for both Melbourne sides so we predict that both captains will go out to the middle with the intention of bowling first if they win the toss.

𝐌𝐀𝐓𝐂𝐇 : Sydney Sixers vs Brisbane Heat 𝐃𝐀𝐓𝐄 : January 03 ,Friday𝐓𝐈𝐌𝐄 : 12:35 PM IST 𝐕𝐄𝐍𝐔𝐄 : C.ex Coffs International Stadium, Coffs Harbour, Australia𝐓𝐎𝐔𝐑𝐍𝐀𝐌𝐄𝐍𝐓 : Big Bash League, 2024-25 Sydney Sixers emerged victorious over Brisbane Heat in their previous meeting this season. Sydney Sixers vs Brisbane Heat TV channels: The fans can watch the match live on Hotstar Live Streaming: Live streaming of the match will be available on the FAFA191 Cricket Exchange India and website. SYS vs BH Match Prediction & Analysis Brisbane Heat meet Sydney Sixers this Friday evening at Coffs Harbour in the 21st BBL 2024-25 match. The Sixers currently sit at the top of the table with 8 points from five games. The Heat are struggling in sixth place, managing just two wins from their five games. The Sixers already beat the Heat in their previous encounter this season and will be confident of repeating the feat against their struggling opponents. TEAMS PREVIEW Sydney Sixers Preview After winning their first four matches, Sydney Sixers suffered their first defeat this season at the hands of Hobart Hurricanes. Chasing a target of 162 at Hobart, the Sixers fell way short as they were bundled out for just 111. Despite the loss, the Sixers wouldn’t be too perturbed as they have had a near-flawless campaign so far. Brisbane Heat Preview Brisbane Heat have had a mixed campaign so far. They started the season with a bang, winning two games in a row. However, they have stumbled post that with three consecutive defeats, the last of which was against Melbourne Stars. The team will be counting on Nathan McSweeney to deliver another standout performance. McSweeney, who is the team’s second-highest run-getter with 129 runs in 5 innings, has the ability to anchor the innings and play the big knock when needed. Weather Conditions The International Sports Stadium in Coffs Harbour presents a well-maintained, fast pitch ideal for T20 cricket. Expect good bounce and carry for the pacers, while spinners will find some turn and grip. The outfield is fast, promising high scores. Batters who can time the ball well will thrive, making for an exciting contest. The weather will be partly cloudy with chances of a passing shower or two in the afternoon. However, we should still get a full game. SYS vs BH Pitch Report The average first innings score at the International Sports Stadium is 168. The highest total posted here is Sydney Sixers’ 203/5 versus Adelaide Strikers in 2023. This is the only game at the venue that has been won by the team batting first.

𝐌𝐀𝐓𝐂𝐇 : Sydney Thunder vs Melbourne Renegades𝐃𝐀𝐓𝐄 : December 30 ,Monday𝐓𝐈𝐌𝐄 : 13:45 PM IST 𝐕𝐄𝐍𝐔𝐄 : Sydney Showground, Sydney Olympic Park, Australia𝐓𝐎𝐔𝐑𝐍𝐀𝐌𝐄𝐍𝐓 : Big Bash League, 2024-25 Two teams who have won two and lost one so far in this campaign go head to head in Match 16! Sydney Thunder vs Melbourne Renegades TV channels: The fans can watch the match live on Hotstar Live Streaming: Live streaming of the match will be available on the FAFA191 Cricket Exchange India and website. SYT vs MLR Match Prediction & Analysis This has been a very entertaining Big Bash League so far this season with only Sydney Sixers maintaining a 100% record ahead of Match 15 and Melbourne Stars the only side to have lost five out of five. Their two city-rivals, Sydney Thunder and Melbourne Renegades go head to head in this fixture and both come into the clash only two points behind the Sixers at the top of the tree. Both sides also won their last games so there should be plenty of confidence and self-belief in the home and away dressing rooms at the Sydney Showground Stadium. TEAMS PREVIEW Sydney Thunder Preview Sydney Thunder had the joy of taking on the whipping boys – Melbourne Stars – in their last game and although they only won by 18 runs they were able to get another victory to see their record up to two wins from three games. England international Sam Billings was the star of the show with the bat in that match with the keeper-batter hitting 72 runs from 39 balls. That said, the team management will still be looking for more from skipper David Warner and West Indies international Sherfane Rutherford who are both yet to make significant contributions. With the ball, Lockie Ferguson continues to have an excellent BBL debut campaign and pacer Wes Agar backed him up with 3/25 against the Stars. With Daniel Sams and Chris Green also in the attack, there is plenty of depth for Thunder! Melbourne Renegades Preview There was a famous win for Melbourne Renegades against Perth Scorchers in Match 10 with the men in red getting over the line with two wickets and six balls remaining. In a low-scoring classic, the bowling attack came to the fore but there may be some confidence building required by the batting coaches ahead of this clash. Tom Rogers was the star with the ball in Match 10 and he rightly took home the Player of the Match award after picking up 3/22. He will be vying with Fergus O’Neill and Kane Richardson to be top dog pacer in this game with Adam Zampa the key spinner. Weather Conditions There will be no clouds in Sydney across Monday and the temperature will be in the mid-twenties on Monday evening. Humidity will be no higher than 50% across this game. SYT vs MLR Pitch Report This pitch is likely to deliver par totals of around 165 in this game but there will be something for the bowlers to work with. The new ball will move off the straight and there will also be some turn for the spinners. Toss: To Bowl This pitch at the Sydney Showground Stadium is one which always offers some assistance for the bowlers and we expect more of the same again in this fixture. As a result, we predict that both captains will want to bowl first.

𝐌𝐀𝐓𝐂𝐇 : Melbourne Renegades vs Perth Scorchers𝐃𝐀𝐓𝐄 : December 23 ,Monday𝐓𝐈𝐌𝐄 : 13:45 PM IST𝐕𝐄𝐍𝐔𝐄 : Marvel Stadium, Docklands, Australia𝐓𝐎𝐔𝐑𝐍𝐀𝐌𝐄𝐍𝐓 : Big Bash League, 2024-25 Can Melbourne Renegades carry their form home? Melbourne Renegades vs Perth Scorchers TV channels: The fans can watch the match live on Hotstar Live Streaming: Live streaming of the match will be available on the FAFA191 Cricket Exchange India and website. MLR vs PRS Match Prediction & Analysis Melbourne Renegades will be playing Perth Scorchers at the Docklands Stadium in Melbourne. The hosts will be confident after their recent win and will back themselves to put struggling Scorchers under pressure. Perth Scorchers will be livid after failing to finish the innings on a high in their last match. With skipper Ashton Turner and wicket-keeper bat Matthew Hurst on the crease, Scorchers scored just 23 runs in the last 25 balls of their innings and lost 2 wickets. TEAMS PREVIEW Melbourne Renegades Preview Melbourne Renegades bounced back strongly after a loss in their opening match of the season. Tim Seifert was much better with the bat in the second outing, with an improved strike rate at number 3. Another overseas player known for his big-hitting abilities, Laurie Evans, will be expected to find his rhythm in the lower middle order and step up as a finisher for the Renegades. The 21-year-old batting all-rounder Jacob Bethell is a solid number 4. Though he didn’t get going after replacing Mackenzie Harvey in the last match, he is a very promising player and we expect him to find his rhythm soon. Most of all, the opening batsman Jake Fraser-McGurk made headlines in the IPL 2024, scoring 330 in 9 outings at a strike rate of 234 for the Delhi franchise. He is a key batsman to watch out for at the top. There are many all-rounders in the lower order, including the skipper Will Sutherland, who’s been quite impressive with the ball, picking up 5 wickets in two games. Perth Scorchers Preview Perth Scorchers need to address their batting concerns before coming to Melbourne. Plenty of promising batters are on the side, including some reliable match-finishers in the lower middle order. However, Turner and Hurst’s failure to deliver a good finish in the last match while batting first has raised some questions. Nonetheless, it is still early in the Big Bash League, and we can expect a comeback from the skipper. Josh Inglis looked great at number 4 in the last match. He missed out on his fifty by a single run after being run out. In the top order, Finn Allen and Keaton Jennings bring experience to this batting lineup. Jennings has played many games in the English domestic circuit and is a well-rounded player. Number 3 batter Cooper Connolly made a mark for himself with a 64-run knock in the opening game. The Scorchers need consistent partnerships to help carry the momentum through their innings.

ADS vs MLS Match Prediction & Analysis The Big Bash League 2024-25 has seen exciting games. The competition is heating up, and Adelaide Strikers will look for their first win as they take on the Melbourne Stars in the 6th match. The Strikers lost their first game against the Sydney Thunder and shall look to make a strong comeback. Melbourne Stars will face the heat going into this game after losing against Brisbane Heat by 8 wickets. The Melbourne Stars have lost both the games they have played, and the team is struggling with its form. The bowling attack lacks teeth, and the team needs a turnaround from the bowlers to win this contest. Adelaide Strikers have their batsmen in good form, and it will be interesting to see if the Melbourne Stars can stop the downward slide with a strong comeback. TEAMS PREVIEW Adelaide Strikers Preview Matthew Short’s side hasn’t had the perfect start to the season. In a nail-biting contest, they went down against the Sydney Thunder by 2 wickets. While the batsmen did well in the last game, the bowling attack had a poor outing. Short would expect a better performance from his bowlers and look to exploit Melbourne Stars’ lack of form. Matthew Short will look to lead from the front and deliver a good start with Jake Weatherald, who played well in the last game. Chris Lynn is a powerful striker, and he must build partnerships with Harry Nielsen and Alex Ross in the middle order. The side has depth in the batting, and we should expect a good show from Jamie Overton, Fabian Allen, and James Bazley. Melbourne Stars Preview Marcus Stoinis’ team will be under pressure heading into this game. They have lost back-to-back games and sit at the bottom of the points table. They struggled in the last game against Brisbane Heat in an 8-wicket loss. Alarm bells have started ringing in the camp, and Stoinis expects his players to pull up their socks and perform well. The opening combination isn’t working for the team, and the side expects Thomas Rogers and Joe Clarke to set a strong platform at the top. Sam Harper will look to steer the innings in the middle order and add runs with Stoinis and Hilton Cartwright. They have depth in the lineup and expect Beau Webster and Tom Curran to do the heavy lifting in the death overs. Weather Conditions We expect clear skies over Adelaide. It is a high-scoring wicket, with high-scoring games in the last two years. Bowlers find it hard to bowl on this surface with little for them on it. The average first-innings score is 158 runs, and the first side to bat would need at least 180 runs on the board. ADS vs MLS Pitch Report Adelaide Oval is one of the best batting surfaces in Australia. It has short boundaries around the square, allowing batsmen to play their strokes freely. Fast bowlers have done well at this venue, but spinners have always struggled as there is little margin for error due to the dimensions of the ground. Toss: To Bowl The team chasing the score has won the last four games at this venue. It is a good wicket to bat on where defending scores haven’t been easy. The side that wins the toss would look to bowl first and restrict the opponents to a small total.

MLR vs HBH Match Prediction & Analysis It is the 5th game in the Big Bash League 2024-25. The Melbourne Renegades will look to make a strong comeback as they take on the Hobart Hurricanes. The Renegades made a poor start to the tournament, losing against the Sydney Sixers in their first game. The Hurricanes begin their campaign with this game and will look to win and set the tone for the rest of the season. The Hobart Hurricanes have enjoyed a good record against the Melbourne Renegades, winning the last five out of six games between the two teams. They have a strong batting lineup and shall look to drive home a win. The Renegades will be under pressure in this game. They struggled with the ball in the last game, and it will be interesting to see if the team can make a comeback. TEAMS PREVIEW Melbourne Renegades Preview It wasn’t the kind of start that Will Sutherland and his team would have liked. They went down by Sydney Sixers in their opening game by 5 wickets. The side batted well but needs a better show from the bowlers. They must win this game and avoid repeating their poor show in the first half as in the last season. Jake Fraser-McGurk and Josh Brown started well in the last game, and the team expects them to deliver an electrifying start. Tim Seifert batted well in the last game, and he must add runs in the middle order with Mackenzie Harvey and Laurie Evans. Sutherland and Hassan Khan add depth to this batting lineup and must add runs in the death overs. The bowling attack struggled in the last game. Thomas Rogers and Fergus O’Neill bowled poorly in the last game with the new ball, and the team expects a better show. Adam Zampa is the key bowler in the side, and he must do well in the middle overs with Kane Richardson. Hassan Khan and Sutherland will look to do well in the supporting role. Hobart Hurricanes Preview Nathan Ellis’ side didn’t have a great season in the last edition. The side won only four out of ten games and didn’t qualify for the playoffs. The team will look to make a strong start in the season with a win. They have a good record against the Melbourne Renegades, and Ellis would like a strong show from his players to extend this record. Matthew Wade is an experienced player and must deliver a strong start with Caleb Jewell. The middle order wasn’t consistent last season, and the team would like to see a good show from Macalister Wright, Ben McDermott, and Mitchell Owen. Tim David is a good finisher and looks forward to doing well with Nikhil Chaudhary and Chris Jordan. Riley Meredith and Nathan Ellis are key bowlers for the team, and they must strike early and put the Renegades out under pressure. The team will look for a good show from Chris Jordan and Nikhil Chaudhary in the middle overs. Tim David, Patrick Dooley, and Mitchell Owen complete a formidable attack for the team. Weather Conditions Geelong will have clear skies on December 17. We expect to see more challenging batting conditions like in the past. There would be assistance for the bowlers in this game. The average first-innings score is 141 runs, and the side batting first would like to have 160 or more on the board to feel confident. MLR vs HBH Pitch Report Simonds Stadium, Geelong, is a small ground, and there have been high-scoring games in the past. Batting is easy on this track as the ball comes to the bat nicely. Fast bowlers can move the ball in the air and have done well. It is a challenging venue for the spinners as they have little assistance on this surface. Toss: To Bowl Most teams in the past have won games chasing scores at this venue. The wicket is good here and allows batters to play their strokes freely. However, it can be tricky at the start of the game, creating doubts in the batsmen’s minds. Hence, the side that wins the toss would have little hesitation in opting to bowl first.

The Melbourne Stars will be under pressure after losing against the Perth Scorchers in the season opener. Brisbane Heat will look to make a strong start in the tournament. They are the defending champions and shall look to start from where they left off last season. The Brisbane Heat have a strong batting lineup, which will make the side confident. The players will take inspiration from their past good performances against the Melbourne Stars. It is a must-win game for the Melbourne Stars to put their campaign back on track. It will be a big challenge for the team after the demoralizing loss in the last game. They play at home and seeing if they can take advantage of the conditions will be interesting. TEAMS PREVIEW Melbourne Stars Preview Marcus Stoinis’ team didn’t have a great outing in their opening game. It was a poor batting effort by the team against the Perth Scorchers that saw them go down by 6 wickets. They have a poor record against the Brisbane Heat, and Stoinis would like his team to make a quick comeback and not repeat their history of denting hopes in the first half. Brisbane Heat Preview Colin Munro’s team will begin its campaign in this game. They won the title convincingly in the last edition and shall look to draw inspiration from their performance. The side was consistent last season, and Munro would like a repeat of this. They have a good record against the Melbourne Stars, and the Brisbane Heat skipper would like to add to this record. Jimmy Peirson will look to deliver a good start in this game with Tom Alsop, as Melbourne Stars’ struggled in the last game. The middle order is strong, and they want partnerships between Nathan McSweeney, Matt Renshaw, and Colin Munro. Jack Wildermuth and Xavier Bartlett add firepower to the batting. Weather Conditions There would be overcast skies over Melbourne on December 18. The wicket shall be slow, and batsmen would have to play to the merit of the ball. Bowlers will get assistance from the surface. The average first innings score is 141 runs, and the team batting first would be happy to score more than 160 on this track. MLS vs BH Pitch Report Melbourne Cricket Ground has a good surface for batting. However, we have seen slowness in recent games. Batsmen who spend time at the crease do well at this venue. Fast bowlers get assistance from the wicket with the new ball. Spinners enjoy bowling here as the large ground doesn’t allow batsmen to play big shots. Toss: To Bowl It has been a happy hunting ground for sides that have cased scores. We have seen low scores, and the side batting first has struggled in recent games at this venue. Hence, we expect to see the side winning the toss have no hesitation in bowling first.
