BBL 2018-19: One probable stand-out player from each franchise
Each player sees these T20 leagues as an opportunity to perform well so that they can come in good books of the selectors.
Marcus Stoinis (Melbourne Stars)
Marcus Stoinis is now a regular feature in the Australian limited-overs squads owing to his brilliant performances both with the bat and the ball. The Aussie all-rounder is known for his hard-hitting exploits with the bat and more than handy medium pace bowling. Owing to his successful outing for the Australian team in the international circuit, Stoinis signed a four-year contract with the greens this year.
In his second ODI against New Zealand at Eden Park, the 29-year-old captured attention by claiming 3-49 and then scoring 146 not out, batting at No. 7 to help Australia pull off a remarkable win. His innings included a whopping 11 sixes. Playing five matches for the Stars in BBL 07, Stoinis scored 179 runs striking at 144.35 which included a gutsy 99 in Brisbane against the Heat. He also contributed with the ball taking five wickets in the season. Melbourne Stars will be eyeing on him to take them to their maiden BBL title.
