Melbourne Stars vs Brisbane Heat pitch report:
The early season MCG pitch is really spicy, offering plenty of seam movement and extra bounce for the fast bowlers. Batting will be really challenging here against pacers, while spinners can bowl effectively with long side boundaries.
In the last two BBL seasons, batsmen have averaged 22 here and scored at a strike rate of only 118.

Melbourne Stars all-rounder Tom Curran is an excellent Dream11 captaincy choice for this match. Curran bats at No. 7 and bowls his quota of four overs, including a couple of overs in the death, which gives him a good chance of taking wickets. In the first match this season, Curran scored 37 runs off 19 balls and picked up one wicket.
