Key Players

Glenn Maxwell

Ever since his disastrous outing in the 13th edition of the IPL, Glenn Maxwell has been devastating. In the third T20I against India on December 8th, 2020, the right-hander achieved a scintillating 36 ball 54 at a strike rate of 150. Also, in the recent edition of the Big Bash League, the Melbourne Stars’ captain is the highest run-scorer so far, aggregating 249 runs at an excellent average of 62.25 and a strike rate of 156.60. In the last encounter against the Hobart Hurricanes, Maxwell smashed the opponent’s bowling attack on his way to a pulsating 37 ball 70. The Hurricanes side will undoubtedly be aware of Maxwell’s danger to them in tomorrow’s game.

Dawid Malan

Dawid Malan possessed the year 2020 in T20I cricket. The left-hander aggregated great numbers last year in the international arena. In the ten innings that he recreated the previous year in the most concise format, Malan scored 397 runs at an average of 50(49.63).In the Hurricanes’ earlier encounter, Malan was the originator of the success for his side. The left-hander achieved a match-winning 75 off just 56 deliveries and took the competitor bowling attack to the cleaners. He will be the dangerman as far as the Melbourne side is involved.

Team News

Hobart Hurricanes

Matthew Wade’s side was fast grazed aside by top-of-the-table Perth Scorchers in both of their last two games in BBL 2021. They won’t be the only team to defeat the Scorchers. Jordan Thompson reached into the team forward of their previous match and should impressively maintain his place after bowling.

Melbourne Stars

After conquering Melbourne Renegades to get their season up and operating, Melbourne Stars were obtained back down to earth with a 53 run upset against Sydney Thunder on Sunday. Out of their top seven batters, only Tom Cooper earned double figures. We desire the Heat batters to be authorized to save themselves in this game.
