The Stars are gathring some momentum with three consecutive wins but still remain on the bottom of the table. They keep their season alive at beast though and a win could potentially push them to the top four spot. They have an inconsistent side against them and that could push the Stars to come in with more confident.

MR vs MS Key Players

Tom Rogers

Tom Rogers is off to a good start this season. He is often as bowler who falls under the radar in the domestic circuit and could be looking to grab headlines after years of toil.

Glenn Maxwell

Tough times call for some inspiration. Stars, in Glenn Maxwell have possibly the best Aussie T20 Cricketer and they will badly be wanting him to stand up and make an impact.
