Riley Meredith and Scott Boland will be the bowling spearheads and lead the bowling attack. Ben McDermott will be responsible for providing a good start for the team.

Steve O’Keefe (4/14), Sean Abbott (3/14) and Hayden Kerr (2/6) ensured that the Stars reached nowhere near the set target. Josh Phillippe was adjudged the Man of the Match for his outstanding batting performance.
