STR vs REN Dream11 Team Prediction | Big Bash League 2020 | Match 33 | 8th Jan 2021
In the 33rd match of the tournament, Melbourne Renegades will take on Adelaide Strikers. Renegades are having a poor tournament and have fallen short on multiple occasions. Their batsmen are letting them down very badly and thus despite having some of the famous names in the team, they couldn’t get going and are at the final spot in the points table.
Adelaide Strikers, on the other hand, have done well so far in the tournament and have managed to win 4 out of their 8 matches. Alex Carey has been the real star for them and the bowlers have done extremely well here. The team has three bowlers in the top six in the wicket-takers’ list. Let’s go through our BBL 2020-21 Dream11 Team Prediction between STR vs REN.
