It’s Monday and we’re set to begin our week with some more Big Bash League 2020/21 action after a thrilling end to the weekend in yesterday’s Heat vs Sixers game. Today, it’s Match 36 of BBL 10 and we have Adelaide Strikers in action, a team with 4 wins in 9 games so far in BBL 2020/21. They lost their last game and will be eager to get back to winning ways in this match.
They face off against an off-colour Melbourne Stars team that has only 3 wins in their 8 games this season, unable to find ways to win even though they’ve got big names in their squad. They’re also coming off a loss and would like a win more than anything else. Keep reading for our complete PlayerzPot (Use Code “READ1234“) fantasy preview of the STR vs STA game…

Adelaide Strikers
While they have the spin wizard Rashid Khan in the team, Wes Agar has quietly crept up to the top of their wicket-takers list with 15 scalps in 9 games and he’s someone you should surely pick as he bowls in the death overs as well. They’re struggling slightly in the bowling department and the experience of Peter Siddle will also help them, having managed 13 wickets in 9 games himself, another death overs bowler.
With the bat, we’ll have more options and one of them will definitely by Alex Carey who has led the team well and by example with 258 runs in 7 games including 2 fifties, so he’s a must for our STR vs STA fantasy team. With 190 runs in 9 games, Philip Salt hasn’t been at his best but after three single-digit scores, he smashed a well-made fifty in the last game which makes him another good fit for today’s fantasy team.
Melbourne Stars
With the ball, Adam Zampa missed a game because of a suspension he received and overall, he’s got 10 wickets in 6 games in BBL 10 so far. Along with him, there’s the lesser known pacer Liam Hatcher who was totally unknown before this tournament but has made a good name for himself with 10 scalps in 6 games as well. He bowls a lot in the death and is a certain pick in my fantasy team today.

With the bat, it’s been a poor season for Marcus Stoinis as compared to the BBL 2019/20 season he had where he ended as the leading run scorer. However, 34 and 97* in his last two games means he’s worth adding to your PlayerzPot (Use Code “READ1234“) STR vs STA fantasy team. Hilton Cartwright is someone with tremendous potential with both bat and ball and should be picked despite a poor run of late.
