Melbourne Renegades are on a losing spree as they are yet to win a game this season. They have lost four matches and their one game ended with a no-result due to rain. The Renegades lost their last match to Perth Scorchers by 13 runs and they will be itching to register their first win of the season.
On the other hand, Adelaide Strikers have played three matches so far this season. They have won one, lost one, and one match ended without a result. The Strikers lost their last match to Sydney Sixers by 1 run and now, they will look to leave the heartbreak behind them by winning this contest.
