Melbourne Stars is one of the most unluckiest franchise in Big Bash League’s history. They have played 3 finals but have failed to win any of them. They were the finalists in 2015, 2018 and 2019 editions of BBL but they failed to get the job done every-time. The Stars would hope that the jinx of failing in the finals will finally end in BBL 2022-23.
Melbourne Star Team combination in 2022-23 is one of the lethals when it comes to team sheet.Led by explosive Glen Maxwell, followed by Stoinis, Burns and England’s Joe Clark on batting lineup. New Zealand’s Trent Boult presence in fast bowling department will further boost the teams chances.
