The match on December 23, 2024, between the Melbourne Renegades and the Perth Scorchers, which will be held at Marvel Stadium in Melbourne, seems promising to be an enthralling game. As of now, both of them have been performing well this season and promise a thrilling contest.
The Melbourne Renegades have added a big name to their roster with the inclusion of English middle-order batter Laurie Evans. Evans had played for the Perth Scorchers in the past and brings valuable experience in T20 cricket. He is excited about playing for the team and can’t wait to make a difference in Australian conditions.

The Renegades have kept their lineup consistent. The squad comprises players like Will Sutherland (C), Jacob Bethell, Josh Brown, Laurie Evans, Jake Fraser-McGurk, Mackenzie Harvey, and many others. The playing XI for the final match will be decided at the bat flip.
Conversely, the Perth Scorchers made a strategic change by substituting Jhye Richardson with the pace bowler Bryce Jackson. Richardson would join the 15-man Australia squad in the Boxing Day Test, making room for Jackson to feature in the Big Bash, if the selectors allow it.
Historically, the Perth Scorchers have dominated their encounters with the Melbourne Renegades, boasting a record of 16 wins to only 3 losses. This impressive track record underscores the Scorchers’ strength and consistency in the competition.
