Players who are expected to perform well as per STA vs THU Dream11 Teams.

Top Batsman

STA- Marcus Stoinis

He is a superstar in the BBL. Home conditions suit his style of play.  Recent performance in the IPL also proves that he is in fine nick. Moreover, he will be opening the batting for Stars.

THU- Alex Hales

He was the second-leading run-scorer in the previous edition of the BBL. Expect one more such season from this seasoned T20 campaigner.

Top Bowlers

STA- Adam Zampa

He is probably the most skillful bowler to play in this match. His crafty leg-spin will come in handy in tackling the strong Thunders batting unit.

THU- Daniel Sams

He was their leading wickt taker in the last BBL. His contribution with the ball will come in handy if they are to pose any threat to the strong Stars batting unit.
