Topmost Picks for HUR vs STA Dream11 Prediction:
Top Picks – Hobart Hurricanes
- Matthew Wade – The 36 year old has only played T20I and no ODI or Test cricket over the last two years. However, he is still a force at BBL level as shows against Melbourne Renegades in BBL 2023.
- Patrick Dooley – The left-arm wrist spinner took two wickets in two balls in the last match and although this venue is not renowned for assisting the spinners, he could still cause problems.
Top Picks – Melbourne Stars
- Beau Webster – The all-rounder is having his most impressive BBL campaign after already influencing matches with both bat and ball.
- Usama Mir – Like his spin bowling counter-part in the opposition, Usama would not be a natural fit on this pitch but he will back himself after taking 3/19 against the Sixers.

Matthew Wade(VC), Sam Harper, Caleb Jewell, Macalister Wright, Hilton Cartwright, Chris Jordan, Beau Webster, Glenn Maxwell(C), Marcus Stoinis, Haris Rauf, Nathan Ellis, Riley Meredith

HUR vs STA Probable Winners:
Both the Hurricanes and the Stars, who enter this game in sixth and seventh place, will be looking for a mid-table spot ahead of this game, knowing that they need to string two or three wins together to have a real chance of progressing. The Stars cannot be ruled out with Haris Rauf and Glenn Maxwell in their lineup, but we like the look of the Hobart Hurricanes’ batting lineup and are backing them to win. Considering the team combination, Hobart Hurricanes is expected to win this match.
