Hobart Hurricanes vs Melbourne Stars | Best Players to Make Money

The 23rd match of the Big Bash League 2020 will take place between Melbourne Stars and Hobart Hurricanes at the Bellerive Oval in Hobart on Saturday, the 2nd of January.

Twenty twenty-one begins with a flurry of matches in the Big Bash, with Hobart Hurricanes all set to face the Stars at their home ground in Hobart for their 7th match of the season. Melbourne Stars are the favourites to win the match, despite Hobart being higher on the table right now, Melbourne Stars won the last three encounters the two teams faced and Hurricanes won 2 of the five previous games. Stars have faced Hurricanes at their Home grounds in 4 matches and won 3 of the matches leaving Hurricanes with just one victory on their own home pitch. Now that the season has progressed, we can more accurately gauge the performance of the players and predict the bets in the market and I have picked the top three Player bets from the match for you to make money in the New year.

Glenn Maxwell to Score Over 23.5 runs

The Melbourne Stars’ skipper is hailed as the fastest scoring batsman in the world, and every time we see him out with his piece of willow, his performances are a delight to watch. Maxwell has scored 6385 runs from 272 innings in his career, at an average of 27.40, which is adequate, but if we consider his play for the Stars, he has scored 1881 runs from 67 innings, at an average of 35.49. This already looks good for the bet and even if we look at his play against the Hurricanes, from the 10 innings he has come out to bat against them, he has scored 292 runs at an average of 48.67, the most incredible part is, his play at Bellerive Oval, where he has scored a total of 272 runs from just 6 matches, at an average of 90.33! In the 3 matches he faced Hobart Hurricanes at Bellerive Oval, he scored a total of 148 runs (43*, 47, 58*) from the matches and only got out once! LeoVegas.com is offering odds of 1.86 for Glenn Maxwell to score over 23.5 runs and I think you should definitely make this bet.

Peter Handscomb to score under 20.5 runs

Peter Handscomb is premiering for the Hurricanes this season and it has not been a good season for him so far, with a total of 71 runs from the 6 matches at an average of 11.83. His career average is 23.15 from 79 innings, but his game recently has been below par and he has only been able to score over 20.5 runs thrice in the last 10 matches, and only once in this season. Furthermore, he is going to be playing his first match against his former team, in a pitch that he does not have much success in. Handscombe has played 4 innings at the Bellerive Oval and managed to score only 76 runs from them, at an average of 19.0. Sportsbet.io has offered odds of 1.85 for Peter Handscomb to score under 20.5 runs.

Andre Fletcher to score under 19.5 Runs

Andre Fletcher has a solid reputation for being stolid, he has played 195 innings in his career, and scored a total of 4067 runs at an average of 27.05. He even delivered for the West Indies team in their matches against New Zealand, but this is his first time playing in Australia, and it hasn’t gone well. In the five matches that Fletcher has come to bat for the Stars, he has managed to score a total of 52 runs(18, 4, 6*, 12, 12) at an average of 13.0 which is very conducive for the bet. I would also like to point out that he has not managed to score over 18 runs in the series yet. This is the first time Andre Fletcher is going to be playing at the Bellerive Oval, and also the first time he is going to be facing Hobart Hurricanes and his first match at the Bellerive Oval. Sportsbet.io yet again has offered odds of 1.85 for Andre Fletcher to score under 19.5 runs.
