REN vs HUR Dream11 Prediction: Fantasy Cricket Tips, Today's Playing 11 and Pitch Report for BBL 2021-22, Match 26

The Melbourne Renegades (REN) will take on the Hobart Hurricanes (HUR) in the 26th match of the Big Bash League (BBL) 2021+22 at the Docklands Stadium in Melbourne on Wednesday.

The Melbourne Renegades are rooted to the bottom of the BBL table. They have lacked discipline and application in all departments, managing just one win in five games. The Hobart Hurricanes, on the other hand, have found some form with two impressive wins in their last two outings. Ben McDermott has been the star of the show for the Hurricanes. He has been ably supported by the likes of Matthew Wade and D’Arcy Short. The Hurricanes are third in the table with 14 points and are trailing leaders Perth Scorchers by seven points.
