Pitch Report

The average 1st innings T20 score at this ground has been 157 runs. There is a true bounce on this track, and the batsman can easily trust the wicket. The boundaries on this ground are quite big, and the spinners can take advantage.

Melbourne Stars preview

After losing the BBL 11 opener against Sydney Sixers, the Melbourne Stars will look to get back on track. Despite missing the last game due to injury, Marcus Stoinis is still a part of the side. But, the big news is that Andre Russel and Qais Ahmad will be making their Stars debut. Apart from Andre Russel and Qais Ahmad, Nathan Coulter-Nile is also back in the squad. The arrival of Coulter-Nile will certainly raise the bowling stocks of the side. Glenn Maxwell and Adam Zampa are other important players on this side.

Probable XI: Joe Clarke, Marcus Stoinis, Nick Larkin, Glenn Maxwell, Hilton Cartwright, Beau Webster, Andre Russel, Nathan Coulter-Nile, Adam Zampa, Sam Rainbird, Qais Ahmad.

Sam Billings and Alex Ross batted well in the last game, whereas Daniel Sams and Ben Cutting are the leading all-rounders. Chris Green and Tanveer Sangha will take care of spin, whereas Sandhu and McAndrew are the lead pacers.

Probable XI: Alex Hales, Sam Whiteman, Matthew Gilkes, Sam Billings, Alex Ross, Ben Cutting, Daniel Sams, Chris Green, Tanveer Sandhu, Nathan McAndrew, Gurinder Sandhu.
