Adelaide Strikers vs Melbourne Stars prediction

Adelaide United have the opportunity to make it two wins from two here after a narrow but statement three-wicket triumph at the SCG last time out against Sydney Sixers. That was despite captain Matt Short failing with the bat as Liam Scott’s half-century followed by a crucial accumulation of runs from the lower order saw Adelaide home with four balls to spare.

Melbourne Stars are coming off the back of an eight-wicket thrashing of defending champions Hobart Hurricanes, but playing on the road should make for a significantly tougher assignment here for the Stars. But their bowling unit looks tournament winning on paper and they are more than capable of gaining two points here on the road. The value play would be backing the Stars.
