Ninja Stadium Pitch Report ahead of Hobart Hurricanes vs Renegades BBL 2024-25 match

Before the Hobart Hurricanes vs Melbourne Renegades match, let us look at the Ninja Stadium Pitch Report.

The Hobart Hurricanes will take on the Melbourne Renegades on Tuesday in the 34th Big Bash League match at Bellerive Oval, Hobart. Led by Nathan Ellis, the Hurricanes have impressed this season, securing second place with five wins in seven games. In contrast, the Renegades have struggled, sitting at the bottom with five losses in eight matches.

In their previous meeting, the Renegades defeated the Hurricanes by six wickets, and this game provides the Hurricanes with a chance to avenge that loss and solidify their standings. As both teams gear up for this exciting clash, here’s a brief look at the pitch conditions at Bellerive Oval and how they might influence the game.

Ninja Stadium Pitch Report

The pitch at Bellerive Oval in Hobart is typically batter-friendly. In the ongoing BBL 2024-25 season, the venue has recorded an average run rate of 8.32, which is solid for T20 cricket. While new ball bowlers might find some seam movement early on, batters are expected to thrive due to the surface’s pace and bounce once they settle in.

Spinners are unlikely to find much turn and will need to rely on precision and variations to be effective. For pacers, hitting the deck hard and using cutters or slower deliveries during the death overs could be key strategies. Teams chasing have had better results here, with three out of four matches this season won by the side bowling first. Hence, the toss-winner is likely to opt for bowling.
