Last week the MPCA announced a star-studded squad with champion Sorrento all-rounder Anthony Blackwell, Moorooduc's Bob Wilson and Long Island guns Justin Bridgeman, Paul Hartle and Michael Burke.

Team manager and MPCA general manager Paul Pelzer said the availability of the competition's stars had set up the clash against the Premier Cricket outfit to be a beauty.

"It's a good side," he said. "Probably one of the best teams that we could put out."

Pelzer said Warwick and Blackwell loom as keys if the MPCA is to topple the Heat.

There will be an under-18 game beginning at 10am before the senior clash, starting at 2.15pm.

Senior squad: Daniel Warwick (captain, Baxter), Anthony Blackwell (Sorrento), Bob Wilson (Moorooduc), Michael Burke (Long Island), Rob Hearn (Mornington), Andy Johnson (Langwarrin), Dale Irving (Baxter), Justin Bridgeman (Long Island), Paul Hartle (Long Island), John Forrest (POB), Matt Meagher (Heatherhill), Adam Jones (POB).

Under-18: Leigh Janssen (C) (Boneo), Kristian Miller (Heatherhill), Jack Fowler (Boneo), Mitch Darville (Mt Martha), Jayden Pain (Red Hill), Lachlan Hay (Main Ridge), Jack Heseltine (Mornington), Jordan Pomeroy (Mt Martha), Patrick Beckham (Skye), Lachlan Dobson (Carrum), Brad Trotter (Pearcedale), Blake Hogan-Keogh (Crib Point), Jedd Flack (Sorrento).
