The upcoming Match No. 36 of the ongoing BBL 2025-26 will witness the Melbourne Renegades (REN) locking horns with Perth Scorchers (SCO) at the Docklands Stadium in Melbourne on Thursday, January 15. The last time these two teams squared off against each other, Melbourne came out victorious.

The Renegades have had an underwhelming season so far, losing five out of the eight games they have played. They are currently sitting in the seventh spot in the table with six points.

On the other hand, Perth has had a brilliant season so far, and they occupy the third position in the standings, with five wins and three losses in eight games.

The Docklands Stadium has traditionally been a venue at which teams batting first have been more successful. The pitch tends to act double-paced as the match goes on. Variations from the pace bowlers might come in handy. Batters will be aiming at making the most out of the powerplay overs as well as the death.

Tim Seifert, Josh Brown, Jake Fraser-McGurk, Mohammad Rizwan(w), Caleb Jewell, Hassan Khan, Will Sutherland(c), Sam Elliott, Gurinder Sandhu, Jason Behrendorff, Adam Zampa

Mitchell Marsh, Finn Allen, Cooper Connolly, Josh Inglis(w), Aaron Hardie, Ashton Turner(c), Laurie Evans, Jhye Richardson, Luke Holt, David Payne, Mahli Beardman

With 305 runs in eight matches, Melbourne Renegades' Josh Brown could be the best batter of match 36 of BBL 2025-26. He seems to have found his form back with the bat and would be looking to continue being in his best form.

Melbourne Renegades' Gurinder Sandhu could be the best bowler in the upcoming game against the Perth-based team. In eight games, Sandhu has bagged 18 wickets at an average of 15.44 and an economy of 9.92. He will be looking to return to the field and bowl yet another exceptional spell for his team.
