Fans gathered early and had the chance to meet some of the hottest Stars including Australian Test players Peter Siddle and James Pattinson and UK imports Luke Wright and Jade Dernbach.
The MCG came alive with explosive spectacle ahead of what was going to be a challenging match against the Sydney Thunder. It sold out premium memberships, Stars fans packed the stands and were making plenty of noise for the home team.
