Lizelle Lee: Smashed 103* in the win against Perth Scorchers to remind everybody how dangerous she can be at the top of the order, as the Stars ended their losing streak.
Madeline Penna: Her four-wicket haul in the previous game went unrewarded, but 2-24 last time out helped the Stars close out victory.
Elyse Villani: The captain scored some much-needed runs in the defeat to Sydney Thunder and can build from that platform now.
