Toss Supernovas chose to bat vs Trailblazers
However, Smriti Mandhana, the Trailblazers captain, was instead looking to bowl first, something which she eventually got to do despite losing the toss.
There was an even covering of grass on the surface, with not a lot of turn likely to be present for the spinners.
While Supernovas have won the Women’s T20 Challenge twice, Trailblazers are the defending champions, having clinched the title when it was last played in 2020.
