The 14th match of the Big Bash League (BBL) 2022-23 will see the Hobart Hurricanes (HUR) take on the Melbourne Renegades (REN) at the Bellerive Oval in Hobart on Saturday, December 24. Ahead of the match, here's everything you need to know about the HUR vs REN Dream11 prediction.

The Melbourne Renegades are flying high this season with three wins in as many games. While the likes of Nic Maddinson and Aaron Finch have chipped in with the bat, it has been the Renegades' bowling attack that has paved the way for the wins. While they look to sustain their unbeaten start to the season, the Renegades face a decent Hurricanes side who have managed to win just one out of their three matches so far. The Hurricanes have a well-balanced side to fall back on with a lot riding on their top-order trio of Matthew Wade, Ben McDermott, and D'Arcy Short. With both sides eyeing a big win, a cracking game beckons in Hobart.

Shadab Khan (3 matches, 4 wickets, Average: 20.75)

Shadab Khan has been good with the ball in hand, picking up four wickets in three matches. While he has impressed with the ball, Shadab has not been able to translate the same form with the bat.

Akeal Hosein has been the standout bowler for the Renegades, taking seven wickets in three matches. He has an economy rate of 5.73, which is amongst the best this season.
