THE TEAM NEWS
SYDNEY SIXERS
MELBOURNE STARS
THE PREDICTION
The experience of Sydney Sixers has proven a huge factor in them having established themselves as a BBL winning machine in recent years. The side are brilliantly captained by Henriques, contain a deep batting line-up and are also full of outstanding fielders. However, the Melbourne Stars boast a spine made up of players who have teamed together for Australia over the past month or so, winning their first ever T20 World Cup and will head into this tournament full of confidence and in great form. Spin-bowler Zampa could make a case for being arguably the best 20 over bowler in the world today and will form a potent partnership with Afghanistan’s Qais Ahmad. Both should play a key in this particular match and combined with the explosive power of Maxwell and Stoinis to name just two, Melbourne Stars are well worth backing to muscle their way to victory here in Sydney.
