Melbourne Renegades vs Melbourne Stars 32th Match Scorecard | BBL 14
Full Scorecard: Melbourne Stars 165 (Maxwell 90, Duckett 21, O’Neill 2-16, Zampa 2-23) beat Melbourne Renegades 123 (Seifert 26, Steketee 5-17, Paris 3-13) by 42 runs
Glenn Maxwell produced an extraordinary innings, farming the strike and smashing ten sixes in a brilliant 90 off 52 balls, to keep Stars’ BBL season alive after they defeated Renegades in the Melbourne derby.
Stars’ finals hopes appeared over at 75 for 7 after they were sent in to bat at a closed-roofed Marvel Stadium due to stormy weather in Melbourne. Maxwell’s thunderous batting flipped the match on its head to lift Stars to 165 and a stunned Renegades fell well short in the chase.
After losing their first five matches, Stars have won four in a row to remain a chance of reaching the finals while it was a costly defeat for Renegades (placed at the bottom with a 3-5 win-loss record) in a disappointment for much of the 38,000 crowd.
