BBL 2023/24 Match 10 REN vs HEA Dream11 Prediction Fantasy Cricket Tips Possible 11 Pitch Report | REN vs HEA Dream11 Prediction Today | Docklands Pitch Report

The impressive Brisbane Heat, who have won both of their completed matches, travel south to take on Melbourne Renegades who have also made a promising start to BBL 13. It has been a while since the Renegades’ opening match where they tested the Sydney Sixers after a poor Geelong pitch saw the abandonment of their encounter against Perth Scorchers, so how quickly they can find their rhythm will be key.

The Heat look a well-rounded unit at the moment with Colin Munro leading the way at the top. They have also bowled beautifully, with Mitch Swepson in fine form alongside a performing seam attack. In usually slow conditions at Docklands, the Heat, as well as the Renegades, have bowling attacks that can take advantage, so an interesting match awaits.
