The second match of the Women’s T20 Challenge 2022 sees the Supernovas lock horns with the Velocity on Tuesday, May 24. The Maharashtra Cricket Association Stadium in Pune will host this exciting clash.
The Supernovas faced the Trailblazers in their opening game of the competition, where they pulled off a solid performance to win wide. Their captain Harmanpreet Kaur won the toss and decided to bat first. The batsmen contributed to ending their innings on 163 runs. After this, the bowlers bowled brilliantly and restricted their opposition to only 114.
The Velocity Women, on the other hand, will be playing their opening game of the tournament on Tuesday. Deepti Sharma has been handed the responsibility of leading the side as she replaces Mithali Raj in the leadership role.
The temperature in Pune is expected to range between 23 and 36 degrees Celsius. It will stay humid throughout the day.
The pitch at the Maharashtra Cricket Association Stadium is good for batting. The new ball comes nicely onto the bat and the batters can play their strokes freely right from the start of their innings. The bowlers will have to be on their toes while bowling on this surface.
Velocity: Shafali Verma, Laura Wolvaardt, Yastika Bhatia, Deepti Sharma (c), Sneh Rana, Kiran Navgire, Shivali Shinde (wk), Kate Cross, Radha Yadav, Ayabonga Khaka, Simran Bahadur
