MLR Vs BRH Match Prediction: The Big Bash League 2025-26 will be the 15th season of this competition under this name, and the 21st season of professional men’s domestic T20 cricket in Australia. Match 2 of the tournament will see two teams that underperformed last season look to start with a bang.
The Melbourne Renegades are one-time BBL champions, winning the league all the way back in 2018-19. They have also made it to the playoffs a further three times. Last season was a forgettable one for them, as they finished sixth on the points table, well outside top-four contention. This season, they will look to get off to a positive start with a win in this match.
Meanwhile, the Brisbane Heat are two-time BBL champions, last winning it all as recently as the 2023-24 season. However, last season was a bad one for them, as they finished seventh in the league. This season, they will look to improve upon their standing from last year, starting with a win in their opening game.

MLR Vs BRH Final Simmonds Stadium Pitch Report
One of the lesser-known cricket stadiums in Australia. Geelong has quite an underrated cricket history, being just over 70 km away from Melbourne. The stadium here has been the site of some big games, including World Cup matches. The pitches here are considered batting-friendly. The bounce here is moderate and consistent. While the pace bowlers might find some movement with a new ball, as the leather and the surface get older, that movement stops. The spinners don’t get much out of the track either. As for the boundaries, the square lines are smaller, being less than 65m away from the batter. Meanwhile, the straight boundaries extend to over 76m in length.
MLR Vs BRH Final Weather Report
Unlike much of Australia, summer has yet to hit Geelong. The days are mellow and the evenings are chilly. During this match, the temperatures will be in the low 10s. The skies will be cloudy with a small chance of rain. The winds will be on the stronger side, while the humidity will be higher than average.
