Team Analysis
Supernovas:
Supernovas have formed a good team with quality all-rounders in the mix. Harmanpreet Kaur’s experience will also come in handy for them. They also have quality overseas players in the form of Deandra Dottin, Sune Luus, and Sophie Ecclestone. Alan King’s experience with Australia in the recently concluded ODI World Cup will also come in handy for Supernovas. The young pace attack with Meghna Singh and Mansi Joshi in the mix also looks settled.
