Player availability
Coach Peter Moores says
Glenn Maxwell will almost definitely miss the Stars opening game against the Scorchers in Perth on Sunday as he recovers from a left hamstring strain suffered while fielding in the third T20 against Pakistan last month.
Scott Boland and
Beau Webster are also unlikely to be released from the Australian Test squad for that match, while No.1 draft pick
Ben Duckett will also miss the first two games due to England's third Test against New Zealand in Hamilton. Two-time Stars player of the season,
Joe Clarke, has been secured as a replacement for those two matches against the Scorchers and Brisbane Heat.
Pakistan spinner
Usama Mir is unavailable until after Christmas with Kiwi speedster
Adam Milne signed as a replacement for the first three games of the season.
But English allrounder
Tom Curran will be available for the entire season after being poached from Sydney Sixers on a two-year deal.
