Both the Melbourne Stars and Sydney Thunder have fitness concerns ahead of their Big Bash League clash in Canberra on Saturday night.

Fringe Australian leg-spinner Tanveer Sangha is under an injury cloud heading into the game as he deals with a side issue.

The 23-year-old has however been named in the Thunder’s squad for the game.

The struggling Stars have meanwhile been dealt a further blow with English import Tom Curran ruled out of the clash with a calf injury suffered at training on Friday.

The Stars unsuccessfully applied to Cricket Australia to bring Curran’s compatriot Dan Lawrence from outside the club’s 18-mann squad for the game.

But the winless Stars have been bolstered by the addition of Beau Webster, who has been released from Test duties for the match.
