Marcus Stoinis' team has made one of the best comebacks in the tournament's history. They have won four back-to-back games after starting the season with five consecutive losses. The side defeated the Melbourne Renegades in the last game by 42 runs. It is a must-win game for the team, and they are up against a strong side. Stoinis would expect a strong show from his players in this contest.
Ben Duckett has batted well in the tournament and looks forward to delivering a good start in this game with Sam Harper. Stoinis must lead front the front in the middle order and add runs with Thomas Rogers and Beau Webster. Glenn Maxwell has been in superb form, and he adds X-factor to this batting lineup with Hilton Cartwright in the lower middle order.
The bowling attack has done well in the last few games. Joel Paris and Mark Steketee troubled the batters in the last game, and they will look to strike early. Peter Siddle will look to use his experience and do well in the middle overs with Beau Webster. Usama Mir, Stoinis, and Maxwell add depth to this attack.

Nathan Ellis, and his men performed phenomenally in the last game against the Brisbane Heat. The side defeated the Brisbane Heat by 5 wickets in a game that went down the wire.

Caleb Jewell and Mitchell Owen set up an 80-run stand in the last game, and the team needs a similar start from the pair. Ben McDermott, Nikhil Chaudhary, and Matthew Wade have done well in the middle order, and the team expects a strong show from them. Tim David is a good finisher and looks to do well with Jake Doran in the lower middle order.

There would be clear skies over Melbourne. The wicket shall be slow, and batsmen would have to play to the merit of the ball. Bowlers will get assistance from the surface, and the side batting first would be happy to put up a score of more than 180 on this track, with the average score being 161 runs.
Melbourne Cricket Ground has a good surface for batting. However, we have seen slowness in recent games. Batsmen who spend time at the crease do well at this venue. Fast bowlers get assistance from the wicket with the new ball. Spinners enjoy bowling here as the large ground doesn't allow batsmen to play big shots.
It has been a happy hunting ground for sides that have cased scores. We have seen low scores, and the side batting first has struggled in recent games at this venue. Hence, we expect to see the side winning the toss have no hesitation in bowling first.
The Melbourne Stars have done well in the last few games, but the team has won games based on the performances of a few players. They need a good show from the whole unit to win this game. The Hurricanes have their batsmen in good form and have no pressure to reach the next round. It gives them a slight edge in the contest.
