Women's IPL 2020: Supernovas vs Velocity, Weather Forecast

The weather conditions are expected to be relatively hot throughout the day. However, we might expect the temperature to drop down a little in the evening.

Women's IPL 2020: Supernovas vs Velocity, Pitch Report

The first phase of the IPL witnessed scores of over 200 at this very ground. However, with the wickets slowing down and the dew factor playing a major role, any score around 140 -150 would be ideal for the team batting first.

With the ground dimensions relatively smaller as compared to Dubai and Abu Dhabi, it is certainly an advantage for the batters.

Women's IPL 2020: Supernovas vs Velocity, Predicted XI

Supernovas:

With quality spinners in the bowling department, Supernovas will be heavily reliant on them to take advantage of the slow wickets.

Jemimah Rodrigues and skipper Harmanpreet Kaur will hold the key for the defending champions as far as their batting unit is concerned.

The team is full of players with international experience, which means we might see youngsters Ayushi Soni and Muskan Malik miss out in the playing XI for this game.

Anuja Patil and Pooja Vastrakar have been out of the Indian team for some time now and will have to wait a little longer before they play a part in this league.

Supernovas Predicted XI: Harmanpreet Kaur (c), Jemimah Rodrigues, Chamari Atapattu, Priya Punia, Radha Yadav, Taniya Bhatia, Shashikala Sriwardene, Poonam Yadav, Shakera Selman, Arundhati Reddy, Ayabonga Khaka.

Velocity:

Velocity has the most explosive opening combination in Shafali Verma and Danielle Wyatt. Two of the most powerful strikers of the cricket ball need to try and take advantage of the field restrictions in the first six overs.

The team, however, lacks depth in the middle order and will be looking to strengthen their batting department with the inclusion of young all-rounder, Devika Vaidya.

Velocity Predicted XI: Mithali Raj, Shafali Verma, Veda Krishnamurthy, Sushma Verma, Ekta Bisht, Shikha Pandey, Devika Vaidya, Leigh Kasperek, Danielle Wyatt, Sune Luus, Jahanara Alam.
