In the 10th match of the ongoing Big Bash League, Melbourne Renegades will be squaring off against Brisbane Heat on Thursday (December 21) at Docklands Stadium in Melbourne. Brisbane Heat have been hammer and tongs in their performance since the start of the tournament as they are topping the points table with their two victories from their past three matches. Their one match ended in no result. They are carrying five points with the positive NRR of +3.075. Brisbane Heat played their last match against Sydney Thunder that they won by 20 runs. It’s been incredibly thrilling from Brisbane Heat as they would hope to move forward while continuing with their resolute momentum. Melbourne Renegades, on the other hand, have played two matches in the tournament but they have been able to win one game whereas their one game had no result. Melbourne Renegades are on the fifth position in the points table with one point and the negative NRR of -0.400. After having faced Perth Scorchers and Sydney Sixers, Melbourne Renegades would hope nothing more than a powerful win to push themselves up in the points table.
