Indian T20 skipper Harmanpreet Kaur's (51 runs in 37 balls, 4 fours and 3 sixes) brilliant power hitting under pressure during run chase help Supernovas win Women's T20 challenge here on Saturday after beating Mithali Raj's led Velocity by 4 wickets.
Indian star batswoman kept her nerve calm to help her side reach close to the target before getting caught by Hayley Matthews off Amelia Kerr near the boundary line in the second ball of last over in attempt to match the score via a big hit.
However Radha Yadav's brilliant running between the wickets help Supernovas complete the runchase in the last ball of the match with a four.
Earlier, Supernovas produced a clinical bowling display to restrict Velocity to 121 for 6.
Sent into bat, Velocity suffered a batting collapse as they were reduced to 37 for 5 in the eighth over before Amelia Kerr (36) and Sushma Verma (40 not out) stitched 71 runs in 10.5 overs for the sixth wicket to take their side to a respectable total.
But for the superb late fightback by Kerr and Verma, Velocity would not have even crossed the 100-run mark.
Wicketkeeper batswoman Verma top-scored for Velocity with a 32-ball 40 not out which was lashed with three fours and a six.
Kerr, who holds the record of scoring highest individual runs (232 not out) in ODIs, hit 36 off 38 deliveries which had four boundaries in it.
Velocity made a disastrous start, losing a wicket each in the first three overs to be reduced to 14 for 3.
A brief period of recovery intervened with captain Mithali Raj (12) and Veda Krishnamurthy (8) stitching a 23-run partnership for the fourth wicket before both the batswomen fell in a heap in the space of four deliveries without addition of any run.
It left the Velocity innings in a mess at 73 for 5 in the eighth over before Kerr and Verma rescued their side with a superb partnership.
For Supernovas, Tuhuhu took two wickets for 21 runs while Patil, Devine and Poonam Yadav grabbed a wicket each.
