With this being their third game, the Sixers could opt for a couple rotations.
Melbourne Stars Form
The Melbourne Stars are rooted to the bottom of the BBL table with three defeats in three matches. They are under pressure to get a win, or their playoff hopes may be dashed before the halfway point.
Last time out, the Stars bowled first against the Adelaide Strikers, conceding 165 runs in 20 overs. Adam Milne and Peter Siddle both took two wickets in a decent bowling effort.
However, the batsmen failed to get going once again. Sam Harper scored 48 at the top of the order but that came off 44 balls. Marcus Stoinis added 27 in a decent start to the chase, but things fell apar thereafter as they could only reach 150 in 20 overs.

The Stars may look to shake things up. They have a good side and with Glenn Maxwell back fit, they certainly have the quality to produce a big performance.

Sam Harper is backed to top score for the Stars.
