BBL 14:<\/strong> Melbourne Stars dawn a new era with the start of 2025, as Marcus Stoinis leads his side to maiden win in Big Bash League 2024-25. The Stars were on a losing streak of 5 matches, and ended 2024 on a disapponting note, but the first match of 2025, on the New Year’s Day, has brought a change in fortune for them.<\/p>\n

Marcus Stoinis’ first half-century as captain of Melbourne Stars resulted in a 5-wicket win over Brisbane Heta at The Gabba, and with that, they are now the last side in the league to win a game this season.<\/p>\n

“Yeah I mean it’s a big relief to start the new year with a win. Really proud of the group. This is something I have been talking about. Keep the belief and trust the basics. It has paid off today. Yeah look I think I have been disappointed with my performances so far in the season. As a leader you want to step up for your side. I have worked really hard but if you don’t get runs, it doesn’t matter. That was the blueprint for me,” said Marcus Stoinis, who was awarded the Player of the Match.<\/p>\n

“(On making the playoffs) Absolutely there is a chance to make it to the Finals. We have to chill out and then take one game at a time,” he added.<\/p>\n

Marcus Stoinis, Dan Lawrence Create History During BBL 2024-25, Match 19<\/span><\/h2>\n

Marcus Stoinis came at the crease when Stars were reeling at 14\/3, but with Dan Lawrence, he ended up putting 132 runs for the 4th wickets, thereby, resuting in a famous victory for his side, and with that, creating a record-breaking partnership in the process.<\/p>\n

“(On the 4th wicket partnership being a record breaking one for the Stars in BBL) I mean I didn’t know that. Well partnerships are always key to win matches. We were talking about it at the middle. I was trying to keep him calm and he was doing the same to me, said Marcus Stoinis during post-match presentation ceremony.<\/p>\n
