STA vs SCO, Team Previews

Melbourne Stars

The Melbourne Stars have played a match so far in the tournament. It was the tournament opener against Brisbane Heat, where they faced a convincing defeat by a massive margin of 103 runs.

The whole unit of the Stars looked out of form. The team was also hit by injury scare to two of their important players, Glenn Maxwell and Nathan Coulter-Nile. Although Maxwell will be seen in the next game, Coulter-Nile's availability is doubtful.

The Stars will look to buckle up quickly and bounce back strongly with a win in this match.

Perth Scorchers

This season's first game of the Scorchers was scheduled against the Melbourne Renegades. But the match was abandoned due to unplayable playing conditions.

The most successful team in BBL history will look to leave all the drama behind from the previous game and start their campaign fitting for the defending champions.
