STR vs STA Dream11 Prediction: Welcome to the 39th match of the Big Bash League T20, 2021 where Adelaide Strikers takes on Melbourne Stars. Adelaide Strikers have turned their campaign around in the second half of the BBL finding some sort of winning momentum as they defeated Scorchers in the previous match where Fawad Ahmed and the Adelaide seamers pulled things back superbly to keep Perth to just 129 after a pretty strong start and in reply the batters got the job done without any fuss to take them over the line. On the other hand, it was a comfortable victory for Melbourne Stars as they have brushed aside the Renegades by 6 wickets in the previous match. The game was set up by their bowlers who managed to restrict the Renegades to a paltry score of 123 and with no pressure in the run chase, the Stars batters came out all guns blazing which saw Maxwell play a captain’s innings and made sure that the Stars get over the line comfortably.

Points table: STR:- 5, STA:- 6
Ground: Adelaide Oval, Adelaide
The surface at Adelaide Oval is a belter and lots of runs can be scored here, the square boundaries are shorter and it is going to be a tough job for the bowlers to restrict. The team winning the toss might prefer to chase since it’s a morning start.
