The Stars on the other hand, are hot on their tail with 10 points, having won two and drawn one game from their three outings in the tournament so far.

Who scored the most points in Round 3?

Ben McDermott

It was Ben McDermott who was leading the charts in Round 3 of BBL SuperCoach with an astounding 124 points to his name. The dashing Hobart Hurricanes batsman scored all of his points in just one game when the Hurricanes locked horns with the Melbourne Renegades.

Chasing a modest total of 158 for victory, the Hurricanes suffered early setbacks as both their openers were dismissed early. However, McDermott, who was coming fresh off a big hundred against India A in a warmup fixture, showed his class once again as he struck his way to an unbeaten 89 from just 55 balls to take his side to a comfortable victory.

McDermott's onslaught included 5 maximums along with 7 boundaries as he led the Hurricanes to a 6 wicket victory with 14 balls to spare.

Overall, it's Daniel Worral who has earned the most points in BBL SuperCoach so far. The Strikers' pacer has 293 points to his name.

Which players should be traded in and out for Round 4?

BBL SuperCoach allows a maximum of 3 trades to be made per week. Here are Sportskeeda's suggested trades for Round 4 of the competition.

Players to trade out:

Colin Ingram (Hobart Hurricanes) - $125,000

Phil Salt (Adelaide Strikers) - $134,300

Peter Hatzglou (Melbourne Renegades) - $67,900

Players to trade in:

Usman Khawaja (Sydney Thunder) - $87,300

Ben McDermott (Hobart Hurricanes) - $126,400

Jason Behrendorff (Perth Scorchers) - $111,600

While Phil Salt and Colin Ingram had showed a lot of promise in the early stages of the tournament, both of them have since failed to score runs on a consistent basis. Therefore, they have been traded out.

As incredible as it was to watch Peter Hatzglou outfox some premier batsmen, he had to be traded out as he did not even make the playing XI in the Renegades' previous encounter.

While Ben McDermott has been brought into the side for his form and his incredible performance in his previous game, Usman Khawaja has been drafted in based on his incredible record in the BBL.

Jason Behrendorff too is a consistent performer in this tournament and he replaces Peter Hatzglou.
