Pre-Match Analysis:

Adelaide Strikers has a good track record at the Adelaide Oval having won 2 matches in this BBL and looks to remain unbeaten. They are not in the greatest of position at the moment as they have suffered close losses in their last two games against Brisbane Heat and Perth Scorchers. Matthew Short’s dip in form with the bat has affected them hugely however he is making it up with the ball. Chris Lynn for his new franchise doing well with the bat, chipping in with useful runs. Henry Thornton has been mind-blowing, picking up 14 wickets already. They have got every potential to win this tournament and they just need to back their abilities.

Melbourne Stars are looking to turn the table around after losing the previous 4 of their 5 matches played. They will win the match no matter what if their batters shine big. Their only win came against Hobart Hurricanes when they posted 183 runs and registered a convincing win by 38 runs. Joe Clarke has shown a lot of promise at the top of the order and averages 47.5 in this BBL. Beau Webster is their best performer so far with a complete all-round display. They are placed 7th spot in the standings with 2 points.
