Melbourne Renegades vs Melbourne Stars
The Melbourne Renegades and Melbourne Stars squared off in the Melbourne Derby on Sunday, January 12, at Marvel Stadium. The Renegades won the toss and decided to bowl first, which left the Stars, led by Marcus Stoinis, at a disadvantage.
The Stars struggled, losing wickets quickly and falling to 75/7 after 11 overs, proving that the selection was exactly right. When the roof was closed and well-known athletes like Novak Djokovic were in the crowd, the atmosphere inside Marvel Stadium was electrifying.
