SIX vs STA Match Preview

On Saturday evening at the Melbourne Cricket Ground, the Melbourne Stars will face the Sydney Sixers in Match 28 of the 2023/24 Big Bash League. The Stars have eight points from seven games with four victories, while the Sixers have the same number of points but only three victories and two no-results. Following victories over the Sixers, Hurricanes, Strikers, and Renegades, the Melbourne Stars squad is full of confidence. Any game against the Sydney Sixers is difficult, but the Stars will be confident after defeating them on Boxing Day. The Sydney Sixers were unlucky with the weather and ended up on the wrong side of DLS in their game against the Brisbane Heat on Wednesday. They haven’t won a BBL match since Match 11, but they still have a strong T20 squad.

• Ben Dwarshuis- the left-arm fast medium bowler has already taken seven wickets in this BBL campaign and returned figures of 1/7 from two overs against Brisbane Heat.

• Glenn Maxwell- the captain was in typically attacking mood during the Melbourne derby when he finished unbeaten with a strike-rate of 213.33 to take his side to victory with two overs remaining.
• Joel Paris- the left-arm pace bowler is targeting picking up a dismissal for the fourth successive game and he dismissed the captain of the Melbourne Renegades during the Melbourne derby.

SIX vs STA Probable Winners:

Melbourne Stars have lost their first three BBL games by 5 wickets, 7 wickets, and 103 runs, and they face a difficult task to turn their season around. And in their current situation, they couldn’t have asked for a harder opponent than the Sydney Sixers, who demonstrated their ability to win in tight situations with a 1 run victory on Friday. Our prediction for Tuesday’s game at the SCG is that the Sydney Sixers will win again. Considering the team combination, Sydney Sixers is expected to win this match.
