Melbourne Stars:

Melbourne Stars are having the best time in the tournament as they are currently at the top of the points table with 8 wins and 1 loss and a total of 16 points.

In the last match, batting first, it was a one-person show for the Stars.

He got out in the last over, and Maxwell came to the crease and scored 5* runs. Stars posted a massive total of 219 runs in 20 overs.

With 219 runs to defend, bowlers did a decent job. They picked up a wicket in the 1st over and picked up another wicket within the power play and gave away 54 runs. They picked up wickets whenever the opposition tried to build a partnership and never allowed the opponent to score runs freely and restricted them to a total of 175 runs and won the match by 44 runs. Clint Hinchliffe bowled brilliantly and picked up 3 wickets for just 20 runs in his 4 overs. Daniel Worrall, Haris Rauf, and Sandeep Lamichane picked up one wicket each.

They have won 6 matches in a row and would want to maintain their winning streak and number 1 spot by winning the next game against Perth Scorchers.
