The Hobart Hurricanes will face Melbourne Renegades in match 34 of the Big Bash League 2024-25 season. Both teams will face off in Game 34 of the tournament on Tuesday, January 14, at the Bellerive Oval in Hobart. The Hobart Hurricanes are having a breakthrough season this year. They are level with the Sydney Sixers for top place on 11 points, with only the net run rate separating them. The forthcoming game presents an opportunity for them to recover the top rank.
Melbourne Renegades, meanwhile, fell to the bottom of the table with their latest loss to the Melbourne Stars in the previous game. Hence, given their recent form, the Renegades will have a difficult time challenging the Hurricanes in the upcoming encounter.
