The Big Bash League 2022-23 season will begin with a league match between the Melbourne Renegades and the Sydney Thunder. This is the first match of the season at the Docklands Stadium, and the field will be scrutinised closely.
Melbourne Renegades started the competition on a high note, one they want to continue in this encounter. The team’s bowling is good, and they will rely on it again in this game. Even the batting order appears to be solid this time around.

Docklands Stadium Melbourne pitch report
The Dockland Stadium in Melbourne is Australia’s only closed stadium, and it is home to the Melbourne Renegades of the BBL. Because of the lockdown in Perth last season, this stadium hosted 11 games, including the championship game.
Last season, 8 of the 11 games played here were won by teams batting first, demonstrating that chasing has not been easy here. The average first-inning score here was 174 runs, indicating that runs were easy to get by in the early overs, but the pitch became slower as the game continued.
The spinners will be crucial in this game since the pitch slows down in the second inning and one side of the boundary is also tiny. During the draught, Melbourne Renegades management stated that they had chosen Mujeeb ur Rahman and Akeal Hosein to take advantage of the Docklands environment. After winning the toss, batting first is the safe bet at this venue.
