Our Pick Adelaide Strikers are favorites to win
Melbourne Stars take on Adelaide Strikers in the 40th match of the Big Bash League. The match will be played at the Melbourne Cricket Ground and is set to begin at 7:15 PM local time.
Adelaide Strikers picked up an easy win over Melbourne Stars in their last match and they’re looking very good to continue their good run.
The reason we’re giving Strikers an edge is that Melbourne Stars have been poor in their batting. They boast of a solid batting line up but they’ve not looked threatening at all.
Glenn Maxwell and Marcus Stoinis have been their best batsmen but it seems that they too have hit a rough patch. Other batsmen have been far too inconsistent. The bowling also has been average.
Adelaide Strikers on the other hand will be very happy by the way their bowlers are performing in the tournament. Daniel Worrall, Wes Agar, Danny Briggs, Harry Conway forms a strong bowling attack.
Rashid Khan, however, won’t be available for the remaining part of the BBL which is a big loss. Still, we think the bowling attack of the Srikers is good enough to keep a check on the Stars batsmen.
Their batting however looks slightly shaky, it has been throughout the tournament. Apart from AlexCarey, other batsmen like Matt Renshaw, Philip Salt, Jonathan Wells, Jake Weaherald have been very inconsistent.
Overall, Stars have a better batting line up on paper but most of their players are not in the best of form and we expect them to struggle against the Strikers bowling.

The batting for both teams is an issues. We believe that Stars have a better batting line up but most of their players are out of form. Strikers on the other hand have a decent bowling attack and will trouble the Stars batting. We’d like to back Strikers to win this match.
Wicket Keeper
Alex Carey at 9.5 is a good picks. Carey is the best batsmen for the Strikers and is in top form. He’s their highest run getter too.
Batsmen
Jake Weatherald at 9.5, Andre Fletcher at 9.0, Jonathan Wells at 9.0 and Phil Salt at 8.0 will be our batmen.
We agree that the batting looks weak as the players have not performed but all these batsmen are most likely to get runs for their team.
All rounder
Glenn Maxwell at 10 and Marcus Stoinis at 10.5 will add depth to our teams. These two players are the heart and soul of this Melbourne Star team.
Bowlers
Adam Zampa at 9.0, Wes Agar at 8.5, Daniel Worrall at 8.5 and Harry Conway at 8.0 will complete our team. The selection of these bowlers have been done on their past performances. Zampa, Agar and Worrall have been very good throughout while Conway bowled well in the last match.
Captain /Vice Captain
Glenn Maxwell will be our skipper while we’ll back Alex Carey as his deputy.
Batsmen:Jake Weatherald, Andre Fletcher, Jonathan Wells, Phil Salt
