“Survive the first six overs” – Supernovas’ Dottin reveals her gameplan for the final

The West Indian cricketer has been at the heart of the Supernovas this year, making contributions with both bat and ball. The power-hitter revealed her plan, saying that she wanted to bat the first six overs. 

Dottin, in the mid-match interview, said, “The gameplan was to spend as much time at the crease as possible, survive the first six overs. Having a slow start is not always bad. Can’t have a fast start all the time. That was basically the plan. Pitch is pretty good but I think we have enough on the board once we bowl in the right areas and stick to the basics.”
