Commentary

So, it is time for myself, Karthik Raj and my co-commentators, Ayan Chatterjee and Nikhil to bid adieu from this game. Stay tuned to our coverage with the all-expected IPL final set to be played tomorrow!

That is it, it is time for Harmanpreet Kaur and her team to lift the title. This has been a nice little tournament and hopefully there is bigger things to come next year!

Harmanpreet Kaur Winning Supernovas Captain: "Heartbeat was normal. I knew that the game would be like this. Great effort by the girls to win this. We never thought that the game was never won for us. It was amazing. The first over went against us, but I knew that we would come back in the game and King bowled very well there. Well, the last 10 minutes were tense. Pooja went for runs but it happens under pressure. Got to take it in our stride. The talk with Luus was bowl at cover region and I told Sophie as well. It worked. Sophie deserves all the accolades for this win in my view. We were always talking about after-match parties. Credit to the support staff and coaches that kept us together in these bubbles and to get the win and win our third title is a proud moment for us. Happy to win, time to celebrate. Thank You."

Deandra Dottin: "The experience is really good. You learn from other players. The last 15 minutes was adrenaline rush. We took early wickets in the Powerplay and restricted them overall! I am a big shyer, the team backed me. We had fun and also won."

Deandra Dottin also gets the 'Champion Performer of the Tournament' award!

Time for the Post-match Presentation!

Alana King: "Stoked for the girls! It was electric. First time here and don't think I have played in front of a louder crowd! I was really excited to see the domestic talent in India. Very excited to come here and make some new friends. It has been a great time for me and hopefully I am back next year!"

Priya Punia: "A lot of effort put in here. A domestic effort was put in and to play for this team is an immense honor and privilege. I think there was excitement and nervousness amongst us. They started well and then we came back and then it was up and down. Yes, but I knew Pooja had some plans and so she executed them very well."

Deepti Sharma Losing Velocity Captain: "In the starting, we lost wickets and in the middle overs. The batters didn't take responsibility and credit Laura and Simran for running it close. We should have chased 166 considering our performances of us in the first two games. I think nothing to tell them. They swung their bats and we got close. Disappointed to lose tonight, but proud of the effort of the girls. We will look to improve further and will give encouragement to them."

2-28(4.0)

19.6 S Ecclestone to Bahadur

1 A low full toss here, Bahadur comes down the track and her bat goes as the ball goes away to the midwicket area for a single. Supernovas win this game as they stave off the Velocity challenge by 4 runs to win their third title. Heartbreak for Velocity. What a game of cricket we have had here in Pune. WOW!

NIKHIL: 6 needed off 1 delivery, What a game we have witnessed and with just 1 hit away can Simran do this...

19.5 S Ecclestone to L Wolvaardt

1 Fuller-length yorker on the money and Laura can not get underneath it and gets it away for a single and off strike. 6 needed off 1 now.

NIKHIL: Tensions mounting here as 7 needed of 2 balls.

19.4 S Ecclestone to L Wolvaardt

2 Fuller and in the slot here, Laura goes down on one knee and heaves it away to the leg side for a couple of runs to get back on strike. 7 needed off 2; 6 for the Super Over.

NIKHIL: With 9 needed off 3 I would want Wolvaardt to face all the 3 deliveries as she is the one who can take them over here.
