Strikers name squad for Renegades clash

The Adelaide Strikers have named an unchanged squad for their trip to Marvel Stadium ahead of a huge BBL|13 clash against the Melbourne Renegades.

Just one addition has been made, with quick Henry Thornton making his way into the squad of 14.

Last taking the field against the Sydney Sixers, the Strikers will be looking to bounce back from a nail-biting one-run loss at the SCG.  

The Strikers are in a mid-table position in the early stages of the season with a win, a loss and a washout, while the Renegades have been unable to secure a win from their opening five fixtures.

Skipper Matt Short leads the way with the bat, sitting fourth in the run-scoring tally with 137 despite taking to the field just twice so far this season.

English international Jamie Overton has also started the tournament strongly, taking five wickets from the opening games and almost dragging Adelaide over the line with his undefeated 31 with the bat against the Sixers.

Squad of 14 v Renegades: Matthew Short (c), Wes Agar, James Bazley, Cameron Boyce, Brendan Doggett, Adam Hose, Chris Lynn, Ben Manenti, Harry Nielsen (wk), Jamie Overton, David Payne, D’Arcy Short, Henry Thornton, Jake Weatherald

First ball against the Renegades will be at 6:45pm ACDT and will be broadcast live on Seven, Foxtel, SEN and Kayo Sports.

The next match in Adelaide will be on New Year’s Eve against the Stars, get your tickets to Adelaide biggest NYE party here.
