First of all while seeing the both teams. One can say that Melbourne Stars team was strong as compared to Adelide team. Adelide bowling looked weak due to absence of Rashid Khan this BBL 13 seaon. Adelaide Strikers also unable to make a strong bowling attack. Peter Siddle also joined Melbourne Renegades for BBL 2023-24.
As expected track was flat and Adelaide Strikers put a big total of 205-4. Mat Short scored 56(32 balls) and Chris Lynn scored 83(42 balls).
In response Daniel Lawrence scored 50 of(26 balls). Webster scored 66 of (48 balls). Stoinis 55 (19 balls).

Only Cameron Boyce was the pick of the bowler from Adelaide Strikers with paltry figure of 04-15-1.This means that quality bowlers have impact in the game how much friendly the track is.

Dew affect on the Match Result
Dew also has affect on the match. If there is dew factor on the ground. Team love to chase as bowl became wet. Very difficult for the team bowling 2nd to grip the ball properly.
Weather Conditions affect on the Match Result
Weather too play the role. In case of rain, team try to chase the total as they have score in mind that is to be chased down.
Factors that are Exception to Pitch conditions
Strong team vs Weak Team
Very important factor in winning the match is team analysis of two teams.Pitch conditions are exception if the match is b/w a strong team and a weak team. Strong team is always favorite to win a cricket match. In current era, India and Australia are strong teams. Both teams have quality batters and bowlers. They are always favorite whatever the pitch condition is. Same applies to T20 leagues teams in IPL, BBL, PSL etc. Strong teams batters and bowlers have the requisite skills to win the match in their team favor. So team analysis is very important to assess before the match to preditct which team can win the match. For my point of view, team analysis is more important than pitch conditions. In BBL matches also strong and favorite teams have upper hand in the match.
