Melbourne Stars Form and Team News
After finishing last season on the top of the BBL ladder, the Stars have developed a reputation as the BBL’s most consistent franchise after once again fell agonisingly short last year going down to the Sydney Sixers in the BBL09 final.
It was the second year in a row the Stars have fallen short in the final, going down to the Melbourne Renegades in BBL08 from a seemingly impossible position to lose.
Boasting a strong team as always, the Stars have been boosted by the signing of the West Indies Andre Fletcher and Pakistan bowler Dilbar Hussain.
An extremely consistent side who seems to perform at their best each game, the Stars will be buoyed by the strong form of captain Glenn Maxwell.
