THE LOWDOWN
MELBOURNE STARS
- A morale boosting victory over Adelaide Strikers on the road will have proven a huge shot in the arm for the Melbourne Stars ahead of this big derby match.
- Marcus Stoinis showed his quality in front of over 40,000 fans at the Adelaide Oval, thumping 74 from 35 balls, helping the Stars set what turned out to be a winning total batting first.
MELBOURNE RENEGADES
- Melbourne Renegades’ miserable run of form continues as they were beaten by Perth Scorchers on New Year’s Day, five wickets the margin of defeat.
- Aaron Finch struck 65 from 48 balls and he has been in good form across the tournament, but ultimately has struggled to garner support from elsewhere.
THE PREDICTION
The Melbourne Stars come into this one as favourites to take the derby spoils and rightly so. Their performance and victory over Adelaide Strikers on the road was a clear indication as to the quality they possess when they put in a strong, cohesive performance and provided they repeat those performance levels in this one, then you’d expect the Stars, with home advantage in their favour to emerge triumphant.
