Match 33 of the Big Bash League (BBL) 2021 has the Adelaide Strikers taking on the Melbourne Renegades at the Adelaide Oval on Friday.

The Adelaide Strikers have been fairly impressive this BBL season with four wins in eight games. While their batting unit has delivered consistently, their bowling attack has more than made up for any shortcomings.

At the forefront has been the trio of Peter Siddle, Rashid Khan and Wes Agar, all of whom have picked more than ten wickets in BBL 2021. With captain Alex Carey looking in decent form himself, the Strikers would ideally fancy another win at the Adelaide Oval come Friday.

Their opponents, Melbourne Renegades, are on the brink of elimination in BBL 2021. They come into this contest on the back of eight consecutive losses, the last of which came against the Adelaide Strikers itself.

Despite having a star-studded team, the Renegades haven't clicked as a unit and have been prone to a collapse with the bat.

However, they are still in the running for a playoff place and would have to do exceedingly well to get the better of the Strikers in this game.

The Strikers will look to complete a double over the 2018-19 BBL winners at their home venue, which should aid their chances as well.

However, Aaron Finch and co. will be looking to play spoil-sport and considering their depth in either department, the Renegades should prove to be a handful.

With both sides desperate for a win, another entertaining game of cricket beckons in BBL 2021.

Pitch Report

A competitive track awaits the two sides at the Adelaide Oval, with a lot on offer for the bowlers. Apart from early movement available off the surface for the pacers, the spinners should also enjoy the extra bounce at the venue.

The batsmen will need to capitalise on the field restrictions early on against the new ball. This will be crucial for either side's fortunes.

Both teams will look to bat first upon winning the toss with 160 being a competitive total at this venue.
