MS vs ST Key Players

Glenn Maxwell

Tough times call for some inspiration. Stars, in Glenn Maxwell have possibly the best Aussie T20 Cricketer and they will badly be wanting him to stand up and make an impact.

Daniel Sams

Sams the all-rounder has started the tournament well. His bowling was not the greatest but his batting will definitely be something that makes Thunder happy.
