Melbourne Renegades vs Melbourne Stars Match Scorecard  Match Preview

Stars got the opportunity to bat first where they faced the early downfall with 75 for 7. This was done by the Renegade’s tough bowling attacks which were led by Fergus O’Neil (2-16) who made the Stars taste the dust at early overs. Ben Duckett who played off 21 off 14 and Marcus Stoinis tried to stabilize the innings but were dismissed as the bowlers stood strong. Yet Glenn Maxwell played one of the finest innings in BBL history. He struck the team with strategic brilliance, where he smashed easy sixes, with the monstrous hit of 122 meters off Kane Richardson. He approached an aggressive result in a BBL record-81 run eight-wicket stand with Usama Mir playing a highly supportive role without scoring a single run-off the bat. 

The Renegades, hoping to keep their finals chances alive, struggled in their pursuit, getting bowled out for 123 in 18.3 overs. Mark Steketee, who took 5 for 17, spearheaded the Stars’ bowling attack after a rocky beginning. He got rid of Marcus Harris and Josh Brown, while Joel Paris (3-13) tore through the middle order.

Jake Fraser-McGurk (19 off 17) and newcomer Harry Dixon (13 off 10) showed potential but couldn’t form partnerships. Tim Seifert led the scoring with 26, but the Renegades had trouble under pressure losing wickets often. Captain Will Sutherland, who saved the day in their last game, got out during the Power Surge ending the Renegades’ hopes.

Maxwell’s amazing innings saved the Stars from a tough spot and crushed the Renegades’ bowlers’ spirits. His plan to skip singles and go for boundaries worked wonders leaving the other team confused.
