Supernovas batter Chamari Athapaththu, who played a match-winning knock on Saturday, November 7, revealed the secret behind her power-hitting after her side clinched a last ball thriller.
Supernovas defeated Trailblazers by two runs in the Women's T20 Challenge at the Sharjah Cricket Stadium.

Both batters eventually stitched together a stand of 89 runs with Athapaththu smashing 67 runs off 48 balls.
'Three masala dosas and a masala omelette are the secrets behind my power hitting,' quipped Athapaththu while disclosing the secret behind her power-hitting to Supernovas team-mates Shakera Selman, Jemimah Rodrigues and Harmanpreet Kaur in a video posted on iplt20.com.
