50* Deandra Dottin!
She is making them pay is Deandra Dottin. Another no ball from Velocity as Radha Yadav and this time the free hit is deposited into the stands to bring up the half century by Dottin.
50 off just 33 deliveries for the West Indian.

An eventful over that
A six a wicket, two no balls and a wicket off the free hit in that 10th over of the innings bowled by Simran Bahadur.
Before this match we have had just a single no ball in this edition of the Women's T20 Challenge. Today we have had three halfway into the first innings of the final.
SNO - 78/1 (10)

Priya Punia falls!
Priya Punia tries to break free and falls in the process. She had just smashed Simran Bahadur for a six over square leg the previous delivery. Tries to step out and go over covers now, the bat turns in her hands and the ball lobs up as Laura Wolvaardt hangs on after a wobble.
Much needed wicket that for the Velocity.
SNO - 73/1 (9.3)

Punia needs to get a move on here
Apart from that six off Kate Cross in the third over, Priya Punia has struggled for timing so far. She is batting on 19 off 23 and badly needs a move on here.

END OF POWERPLAY!
That Dottin dropped is already proving costly for Velocity and Sneh Rana. Rana comes on to bowl the final over of powerplay and is smoked for consecutive sixes by the West Indian.
SNO - 46/0 (6)

Dottin Dropped!
This could be a huge moment in context of this final. Deandra Dottin tries to step out and smash Deepti Sharma over midwicket. The West Indian does not get the elevation and the fall flies straight to Sneh Rana, who has put it down.
That was a dolly and Sneh Rana's awful tournament in the field continues.
SNO - 28/0 (4)
- 28 May 2022 2:14 PM GMT
Cross taken to cleaners
After a quiet first two overs, the Supernova batters have laid into Kate Cross. A six and a four to milk 13 runs of her second over.
SNO - 24/0 (3)
- 28 May 2022 2:06 PM GMT
Top stuff from Kate Cross
Kate Cross starts the match with a no-ball, but the Supernovas fail to take toll. Just five of the first over.
SNO - 5/0 (1)
- 28 May 2022 1:59 PM GMT
Players stride out!
The players stride out to the middle. Priya Punia and Deandra Dottin with the bat for Supernovas, Kate Cross will open the bowling for Velocity.
