Melbourne Stars vs Sydney Sixers Preview
The Sixers are one of two teams to have already punched their ticket to the finals, but they’ll likely take great pleasure in putting a line through Melbourne’s season once and for all.
The Stars looked well on their way to a finals spot a month ago before things took a turn for the worst during the New Year’s period.
Melbourne lost by a single wicket to this same Sydney side on Boxing Day, extending their losing streak to four against the Sixers.
The bookies obviously fancy a potential upset here with almost even money on offer, but based on the fact Sydney could still finish on top of Perth on the ladder, the Sixers shouldn’t be short on motivation.
