Chasing the paltry target, Supernovas never looked in control as Trailblazers bowlers clicked in unison, jolting them at regular intervals.
After posting a challenging 146/6 wickets, Harmanpreet Kaur's Supernovas restricted the Smriti Mandhana-led Trailblazers to 144/5 wickets in 20 overs.
Chamari Athapaththu's 67 off 48 and her 89-run partnership with Priya Puniya (30 runs) were the brightest prospects of Supernovas innings.
Trailblazers blew away Velocity for a paltry 47 runs and then chased the target down in 7.5 overs at the cost of one wicket to win the second match.
Chasing a paltry 113 for victory, Velocity were never in trouble with Wyatt scoring a brisk 46 off 35 balls her innings laced with five fours and two sixes.
