Led by Smriti Mandhana, the defending champion boasts of a formidable batting arsenal. The 25-year-old can rely on the services of India teammate Jemimah Rodrigues, and Sabineni Meghana, who was impressed with her performances in India’s tour of New Zealand before the Women’s World Cup in March this year, besides Hayley Matthews and Sophia Dunkley who can work their way through the lineup.

Harmanpreet Kaur, captain of Supernovas, has a potent lineup at her disposal herself. Deandra Dottin comes in after an impressive run with the bat and ball in the FairBreak Invitational 2022 and aiding her are the likes of Harman and Harleen Deol.
