The previous campaign was one to forget for Melbourne Renegades as they managed to finish outside of the top-five mix, consequently missing out on qualification to the playoffs. Looking to bounce back from their ruins, expect a strong showing from MR this term. Beginning the new campaign with a difficult game against stubborn Perth Scorchers, MR will have to be at their utmost best to stand any chance against this opposition. With legendary T20 player Aussie Finch leading the line, this side should be pretty confident ahead of this lengthy season. As Finch cannot carry the entire team all on his own, the skipper will be well-supported by the likes of Shaun Marsh, Marcus Harris and Rilee Rossouw. They also have a quality bowling setup. For this game, you can put your money on both Aaron Finch and Kane Richardson.
Genk is in very good shape. Guests of the upcoming meeting have a series of seven consecutive victories in the championship, which allowed the team to climb to the first line in the ranking. Wards of John Van den Brom cannot relax, since the closest rival Brugge is only one point behind. In the last round of the championship Genk was marked by a major victory over Antwerp (4:2). The team lost away only once to “Beershot” (2:5).
