Women's T20 Challenge 2020: Ecclestone picks 4 for 9 as Trailblazers thrashes Velocity
The HinduIt didn't take Velocity long to come crashing down to earth after Wednesday’s high. Not even a day in fact, as Mithali Raj's women were bundled out for 47 on their way to a nine-wicket defeat at the hands of Trailblazers at the Sharjah Cricket Stadium on Thursday. After their thrilling five-wicket win over defending champion Supernovas, another victory would have taken them to the final of the Women's T20 Challenge.
