Harmanpreet, OUT!
This seems to be falling apart for the Supernovas now. Harmanpreet tries to go downtown, she swings hard but there is no timing or power. A dolly to mid off as Kate Cross gets into the wickets column.
SNO - 148/4 (17.3)

Khaka Strikes!
It's been 3 overs since the last boundary and the pressure is showing on Supernovas. Pooja Vastrakar tries to hit Ayabonga Khaka out of the park, but the South African's yorker is a bit too much for her.
SNO - 144/3 (16.4)

DOTTIN DEPARTS!
She finally runs out of luck does Deandra Dottin. Tries to scoop Deepti Sharma, but misses it altogether and the stumps are disturbed. Can Velocity force their way back into the contest now? Has their captain opened the floodgates?
SNO - 131/2 (15)

Harmanpreet gets into the act
Skipper Harmanpreet Kaur gets into the six-hitting spree now as the Supernovas bring up their 100. How much can they pile on with eight overs left and both Kaur and Dottin still out in the middle?
SNO - 103/1 (12)
