They have been winning the championship ever since its commencement in 2018 and are looking pretty strong this year too.

But to compete for the title, are the Trailblazers who lost their last league match but still qualify for the finals because of their superb run rate. In fact, the team under Smriti Mandhana is table topper here.

Pitch and Conditions

The pitch in Sharjah is known for being slow and favouring spinners. The track assisted the slow bowlers to a large extent in the day game where Velocity were bowled out for a mere total of 47. But under the floodlights, batting has been a tad easier because of the presence of dew.

The playing conditions will be pleasant with the temperature around the 29 degrees Celsius mark. The humidity will mostly be in the high-60s.
