In back-to-back matches, they lost to the Brisbane Heat before winning in the reverse fixture. Then came a loss to the Perth Scorchers.

MLS Vs ADS Match 34 Melbourne Cricket Ground Pitch Report
One of the most iconic cricket grounds in the world, the pitches at the MCG have historically been one for the pacers. The leather bounces well here, which might allow the ball to come onto the bat later in an inning, when the pitch softens. However, for the top order, a hard deck means trouble, especially in front of the well-rounded pace attacks these two teams possess. However, once settled, a batter can score big here if they take their innings deep. As for the boundary dimensions, the straight boundary here is long, about 80m in length, while the side boundary is 72-74m away from the batter.
