Melbourne, July 21 (UNI) Struggling side Melbourne Renegades have clinched the coveted first pick in the Big Bash League’s (BBL) inaugural overseas player draft after being drawn first in a lottery conducted by Cricket Australia on Wednesday. Last season’s wooden spooners Renegades held off the Melbourne Stars and Brisbane Heat in the first of the two lotteries held at Cricket Australia headquarters in Melbourne on Wednesday and now have a 50 percent chance of acquiring the number one selection in the draft. The Stars were drawn out second leaving the Heat with the third pick. But the biggest surprise came in the second lottery for picks four through to eight.
