| January 16, 2024 at 11:28 PM
The Sydney Thunder will face the Melbourne Renegades in Match 40 of the 2023/24 Big Bash League on Wednesday evening at the Sydney Showground Stadium. The teams are in the bottom two positions on the table, with the Sydney Thunder two points behind the Renegades. Sydney Thunder had made the play-offs in each of the previous four BBL seasons. But they have fallen far short this year. They have underperformed with both bat and ball. They will need to find a way to avoid finishing at the bottom of the table. The Melbourne Renegades have seen many of their players come and go this season. Next year they will have to prioritise getting players in for the entire tournament.

A big win for either side will not see them move above seventh in the table and for both teams it has been a season to forget. That said, there are some brilliant T20 players, some at the start of their careers and others at the end, who will be on show in this game. Sydney Thunder could still produce a big score particularly with David Warner, Alex Hales and Cameron Bancroft at the top of the order. However, looking at the pitch, we think Melbourne Renegades have the best bowling attack for Wednesday’s surface. Our prediction is for Melbourne Renegades to win. Considering the team combination, Melbourne Renegades is expected to win this match.
