Welcome to Boxing Day Big Bash action! The SCG is to pain this lovely picture. It's been a tough ride for the Stars so far. Their batting failed badly in the first two outings, but they did put up a pretty good score against the Thunder in the last game. However, the bowling didn't click and they haven't been able to package together a complete performance as a team. It's time they get off the bottom of the table to have a good chance of advancing to the next round. The Sixers meanwhile are sitting pretty with three wins out of three games. They treated their fans to two close wins in two visits this season. They would be keen to make the third appearance memorable too.
