Matthews has done well with the ball this season, picking up at least 2 wickets in 3 of her last 4 outings. She also has a good record against the Stars, picking up 11 wickets against them in 13 games.
Only 1 of the last 4 games played at this venue has seen an aggregate score of over 301 runs. As the batters from both sides aren’t in the best of forms, we are unlikely to see a high-scoring game
It’s time for the first Melbourne derby of the season as the Melbourne Renegades take on neighbors Melbourne Stars on Saturday. The match will be played at the Junction Oval.
The two teams have faced each other in 17 matches to date. The Melbourne Renegades won 8 while the Stars won 9.
This match will be live-streamed on the Disney+ Hotstar App. One can also watch it live on the Star Sports Network.
The Melbourne Renegades have been inconsistent this season and have lost 3 of its 5 matches.
The Renegades’ latest match was against the Scorchers which was a thrilling last-ball encounter. However, the Renegades failed to cross the line and are now placed in the lower half of the table. The batting from the Melbourne Renegades has been rather inconsistent and that has cost them a few points.
Courtney Webb is the leading run-getter for the team with 141 runs but is averaging just over 28 runs. Her opening partner Hayley Matthews has struggled to get going. The team has some big names in the middle order including Alice Capsey, Deandra Dottin, and Naomi Stalenberg but they are yet to fire.
The bowlers, particularly the spinners, have fared better. Capsey is the leading wicket-taker for the team with 11 wickets while Matthews and Georgia Wareham have picked up 13 wickets between them. Sophie Molineux missed the previous fixture due to an injury but should hopefully recover in time for this match.
Just like their opponents, the Melbourne Stars too are coming into this contest on the back of a loss. They will now hope to get back to winning ways here.
Much will depend on the opening pair of Yastika Bhatia and Ines Mckeon. They will need to give the team a strong start if the Stars want to put up a match-winning total. The 3 all-rounders, Deepti Sharma, Annabel Sutherland, and Marizanne Kapp haven’t played to their full potential yet but it is just a matter of time before they get going.
Meg Lanning has played a couple of good knocks in the middle order but the team will expect better from her. The seam attack will be led by Kim Garth, who has picked up 6 wickets so far. She will be supported by Tess Flintoff.
Sophie Day and Maisy Gibson are the two full-time spinners on the team.
The team winning the toss will likely opt to bowl first.
The pitch at the Junction Oval is balanced and provides a good contest between the bat and the ball. The seamers can expect help with the new ball and the ball nips and swings, providing them with the opportunities to pick up wickets. The pitch does get easier to bat on as the match progresses. A score of around 160 is a par score on this ground.
The weather is likely to be cloudy with temperatures of around 20 degrees.
Both teams are coming here on the back of a loss and will be eager to earn two points. As always, we can expect a close match between the two teams but we feel that the Melbourne Stars have a slight edge thanks to the quality all-rounders that the team possesses.
