The Sydney Sixers are all set to lock horns against the Melbourne Stars in the 28th game of the Big Bash League 2024-25, slated to take place on January 9 at the iconic Melbourne Cricket Ground, Melbourne. The side sits at the top spot of the points table with four wins and one loss and will be looking to maintain their dominating form heading into this game.

Their last game against Brisbane Heat was washed out due to wet grounds, and before that, they lost their game to the Hurricanes by 50 runs. The visitors will be looking to crush the hosts in this game to maintain their dominating spot in the BBL points table.

Openers: 

The two-star batters will be looking to give a great start to the Sixers in this game. Josh Philippe has been one of the best batters who has been giving a great start to the side.

Kurtis will be looking to boost the top and middle orders of the game.

All-rounders: 

Jack Edwards has been one of the best all-rounders from the Sixers camp who can crush the Stars with both bat and ball. Kerr has been in great form and poses a big threat to the Stars in this game.
