Adelaide Strikers vs Melbourne Stars Betting Tips
Total sixes to be over 11.5 ( 1.78 @Parimatch)
Adelaide Strikers have been pretty decent with their batting order. However, they lack in their bowling order. They have struck 22 sixes in three games at an average of 7.33. Whereas Melbourne Stars have cashed in 17 sixes in five games at an average of 3.4. Stars’ last game was cut short due to weather which left them less window for maximums. However, they have a strong batting line-up and should be able to accumulate over 11 sixes. Matthew Short (8) and Chris Lynn (6) are the top hitters from the Strikers whereas Maxwell and Cartwright are doing the talking with their bat in Melbourne Stars. With that said, it is imperative for the sixes to be over 11.5 in the next game.
