STA Playing 11 for Sydney Thunder vs Melbourne Stars Big Bash League T20; Top Picks, Fantasy Cricket Tips For THU vs STA Dream11 Team Prediction

Melbourne Stars playing 11: Melbourne Stars are without their regular skipper Glenn Maxwell which should be a loss that just cannot be neutralized by them. They do have a solid bowling attack but their batting heavily depends on Marcus Stoinis at the top of the order. Their middle order is in shambles with no firepower. They failed to qualify for the playoffs last time around and with the squad they have, it is highly likely that they could crash out in league stages for one more time.
