  1. Rockets 77-4published at 35 balls left

    33 runs needed

    Heather Graham comes to the crease and immediately takes a single to long-on.

    Rockets have lost 4-24, but they still need less than a run a ball.

    A couple of boundaries and they should be fine.

    That is Scrivens gone. There may well be a twist in the tail here.

    Another cheap wicket...

    New bowler Alice Capsey has a wicket with her third ball, with opener Grace Scrivens chipping to Paige Scholfield at mid-off.

    Are we entering official wobble territory?

    That's the ninth time Ash Gardner has fallen to spin in the Hundred, at an average of just 18.3 - she's averaging 38 against the quicks by comparison.

    The Invincibles have got the two big scalps of Sciver-Brunt and Gardner here. Two very soft dismissals from a Rockets perspective.

    Gardner chips it down the ground and the catch is easily held at long-on by her name sake.Gardner holes out to Gardner...there must be a pun in there.

    Gardner c Gardner b Wellington 11 (Rockets 71-3)

    Ash Gardner goes!

    She goes to launch Amanda-Jade Wellington's first ball over the ropes behind the bowler but finds Jo Gardner at long-on.

    Rockets making the chase a little more difficult than it needs to be.

    The Invincibles do have opportunities here but in every part of the basics of cricket they have been lacking and borderline abysmal. Poor fielding is really letting down the bowlers so far.

  10. Rockets 71-2published at 45 balls left

    39 runs needed

    A couple of fours for Ash Gardner to end Sophia Smale's set - driven past extra cover and struck behind square.

    The first boundaries since the 23rd ball of the innings - that was the end of the flurry of six from seven deliveries, with four of those in the back-end of Smale's previous set.

    She's gone for 0-27 from 10 balls.

    Invincibles need to seize the moment. They have to be attacking against the big name players early in their innings.

  12. Rockets 60-2published at 50 balls left

    50 runs needed

    Amanda-Jade Wellington's second set is knocked around for four singles by the Trent Rockets batters.

    50 balls to go, 50 runs needed.

    The game feels like it has a little more jeopardy all of a sudden.

  14. Rockets 56-2published at 55 balls left

    54 runs needed

    Captain Ash Gardner out of the dug-out for Trent Rockets.

    She blocks Marizanne Kapp's final ball and the South African seamer is finished with figures of 1-17.

    They needed the wicket of Sciver-Brunt she looks to go up and over mid-off. Kapp strikes when they needed her most. AJ Wellington tracks back and holds on well.

    The star batter goes cheaply!

    Nat Sciver-Brunt goes to lift Marizanne Kapp's penultimate ball over mid-off but doesn't hit in cleanly.

    The ball skews up and drops nicely for Alice Capsey.

    Invincibles in it? Probably not, but a few more wickets and you never know...

    Nat Sciver-Brunt can build her innings so well in run chases. A naturally slow starter but knows she can find the gears when they are needed.

  18. Rockets 55-1published at 60 balls left

    55 runs needed

    Kalea Moore takes another five.

    Four more singles from it, with new batter Nat Sciver-Brunt getting off the mark with a nudge to short third.

    Rockets are exactly half way to their target.

    A brilliant catch from Gardner out in the deep. Smith holes out to long-on who takes a stunning low catch. The strategic timeout has in someway worked for the home side.

  20. wicket

    WICKETpublished at 65 balls left

    Smith c Gardner b Moore 24 (Rockets 51-1)

    Kalea Moore has a wicket in her first Invincibles set!

    Four singles come from her first four balls, taking the Rockets past 50, then Bryony Smith goes to strike big down the ground.

    She doesn't get enough on it and Ash Gardner runs round on the rope, taking the catch mid-knee slide.
