Meg Lanning has amassed 132 runs at an average of over 65. She has two fifties to her name. In the last match against Adelaide Strikers, Lanning looked in fabulous touch as she scored 69 runs. Her knock helped Stars get over the line.

Elyse Villani also played well in that game, as she scored a quickfire 43 off just 28 balls in the same game. Overall, she has scored 94 runs in three innings. 

Natalie Sciver is expected to lead the bowling unit for the stars in the upcoming match. She has picked up 6 wickets, which is the most by any bowler from her side.

Beth Mooney has been the lone warrior in the previous encounter against Sydney Thunder. She scored 61 runs,  but due to the lack of support, her efforts went in vain.

Sophie Devine is a must-pick since can fetch you good points with both the bat and the ball.

Taneale Peschel is the leading wicket-taker for her team in the ongoing competition. She has managed to bag 4 scalps and also has a commendable economy rate of around 6 runs per over.
