The 36th match of the Big Bash League (BBL) 2022-23 will see the Melbourne Renegades (REN) take on the Adelaide Strikers (STR) at the Adelaide Oval in Adelaide on Tuesday, January 10. Ahead of the match, here's everything you need to know about the STR vs REN Dream11 prediction.

Strikers and Renegades have had similar campaigns so far in the BBL. Both teams started off with three wins on the trot, only to subsequently lose their next four matches. However, both sides are back to winning ways and have their eyes set on a top-four spot.

The Renegades are without their spin twins Mujeeb ur Rahman and Akeal Hosein owing to ILT20. But they have a good mix of youth and experience with the likes of Aaron Finch and Kane Richardson showing signs of form.

Strikers come into the game on the back of a stunning win over the Hurricanes with stand-in captain Matt Short and Chris Lynn in sublime form. While they will be without Rashid Khan, the Strikers will start as the favorites owing to home conditions.

With both teams looking to extend their winning run of late, a cracking game is on the cards in Adelaide.

STR vs REN Dream11 match top picks

Top Wicketkeeper Pick

Sam Harper (6 matches, 116 runs, SR: 156.76)

Sam Harper has shown signs of form with 116 runs in six matches at a strike rate of 156.75 this season. He was the Player of the Match in the Renegades' win over the Hurricanes, scoring 89 runs off just 48 balls. He is expected to bat in the top order and given his explosiveness, Harper should be a top pick in your STR vs REN Dream11 prediction team.

Top Batter Pick

Adam Hose (8 matches, 197 runs, SR: 142.75)

Adam Hose has lived up to his reputation in his debut BBL season, scoring 197 runs at a strike rate of 142.75. He is averaging in excess of 30 and has often come up with handy knocks at times of need. With Hose coming into the game on the back of scores of 38 (22) and 56 (41) in his last two matches at the Adelaide Oval, he is a good addition to your STR vs REN Dream11 prediction team.

Top All-rounder Pick

Matt Short (8 matches, 321 runs, 7 wickets)

Matt Short has been in brilliant form for the Strikers this season, scoring 321 runs at an average of 45.86. He has also chipped in with seven wickets, with his economy rate of 6.70 holding him in good stead. With Short scoring a hundred in his last outing in Adelaide, he is in good form and could be a fine pick for your STR vs REN Dream11 prediction team.

Top Bowler Pick

Tom Rogers (9 matches, 17 wickets, Average: 16.35)

Tom Rogers is the leading wicket-taker this season with 17 wickets in nine matches at the time of writing. Rogers has picked up seven wickets in his last two matches, including a fifer against the Melbourne Stars. The Renegades pacer is able both in the powerplay and the death overs, making him a must-have in your STR vs REN Dream11 prediction team.

STR vs REN match captain and vice-captain choices

Martin Guptill

Martin Guptill has had an underwhelming BBL season so far with 106 runs at a strike rate of 101.92. Guptill, however, showed signs of form in his previous BBL outing, scoring 36 runs off just 19 balls. Given his experience and ability to take on the bowlers from ball one, Guptill is a good choice as captain or vice-captain in your STR vs REN Dream11 prediction team.

Matt Short

Matt Short is arguably the player of the tournament with 321 runs and seven wickets in eight matches so far. He scored his first BBL hundred and also picked up a wicket in his previous outing at the Adelaide Oval. With Rashid Khan not being available, Matt Short is likely to continue bowling his full quota of overs, making him a viable captaincy choice in your STR vs REN Dream11 prediction team.
