Info:
- Both Sydney Thunders and Melbourne Stars are laced with some brilliant batting options. For Stars, Maxwell and Pooran are in top form while Alex Hales and Usman Khawaja have been brilliant.
- Melbourne Stars have a better bowling attack than Sydney Thunders and we expect them to cause a lot of trouble to the Thunder’s batsmen.
- Ben Cutting, Chris Green, and Daniel Sams are quality all-round options that add a lot of depth to Sydney Thunder.

Toss Prediction
It’s always a good thing to put big runs on the board. The pitch might get a little slower in the second innings thus captains might look to bat first.
Weather & Pitch Report:
⛅ Weather:
The weather looks promising with no chances of rain. The temperature will also be very pleasant in and around the 20’s.
🏟️ Pitch:
The Pitch is a brilliant wicket to bat and we might see another high scoring encounter between two magnificent teams.
Team NEWS:
MELBOURNE Team News:
Marcus Stoinis and Nic Maddinson missed Stars previous match but will rejoin the squad ahead of their clash with Sydney Thunders. Stoinis was granted leave to spend time with his family while failed to reach Queensland due to travel restriction.
SYDNEY Team News:
Sam Billings and Jason Sangha have been added to the 19 member squad for Thunder’s clash against Melbourne Stars. Thunders are flying high after three consecutive wins thus we doubt they’d like to make any change in this all important clash.

STA Key Players:
Glenn Maxwell:
Glen Maxwell was at his destructive best against Sydney Sixers, smashing a brutal 71 off 47 deliveries. Stars will be hopeful of him carrying his form in BBL 2020 against Sydney Thunder too.
Nicholas Pooran:
Nicolas Pooran too thrashed the Sixers bowlers all round the park in a 26 ball 65. The kind of form he’s in, we expect him to be the danger man for Sydney Thunder.

Nathan Coluter Nile:
Nathan Coulter Nile was absolutely brilliant in his last match. He’s been in top form throughout the tournament and will lead the Stars charge with the ball.

THU Key Players:
Alex Hales:
The destructive English opener was very impressive in the last match and scored a brisk 35 of 21 delivering. We expect him to come good in the next match.
Usman Khawaja:
Usman Khawaja is another batsmen that Sydney Thunder heavily relies. Khawaja stroked a breezy 34 of 18 and looked in really good touch. He too is expected to continue his good run in the tournament.

Adam Milne:
Adam Milne has been very impressive for Thunders. Milne is proving difficult for the batsmen to tackle with his extra pace thus he’s another player to keep a keen eye on.

Melbourne Stars have been slightly unlucky in the tournament. They could have eaily won all of their four matches but a washout against Pert Scorchers and a close loss to Sixers have pegged them back to 5th in the points table.
THU Team Form:
Sydney Thunders are have been in scintillating form in the tournament. They stated their tournament with a loss to Melbourne Stars but have been very impressive since then, winning back to back against Brisbane Heat, Perth Scorchers and Melbourne Renegades.
