    Samit Patel is through an over in double-quick time.

    Trent Rockets pretty much have this game in the bag and some fans are heading for the exits to beat the traffic.

    That's a big edge that somehow kept moving away from the keeper.

    Two drops in this set of five balls. Wood has gone for 27, it should have and could have been much lesser.

    Invincibles 116-4published at 20 balls left

    Sunil Narine biffs Luke Wood down the ground, hitting the commentary pod with a six. Next ball and he's dropped behind the stumps by Tom Moores after edging.

    It's all happening.

    We have seen the high ball put down from the keeper. Shamsi has done everything right tonight, oh my word.

    I tell you who else is in disbelief, the bowler.

    Something in the air at Trent Bridge tonight? Another simple catch goes down.

    A slower ball from Luke Wood and this time it finds Tabraiz Shamsi in the ring at short third but he spills the catch.

  7. Invincibles 103-4published at 25 balls left

    Tabraiz Shamsi is done for the night with the ball. He has 2-21 from his 20 balls. Not bad for a night's work.

    Luke Wood is back into the attack.

    I think Shamsi is just bowling too well, spinning the ball both ways.

    Sunil Narine survives.

    We are going to have a look at it. I thought he maintained his balance well there.

    Hint of a stumping as Tom Moores whips the bails off as Sunil Narine, who is a little off balance, goes after Tabraiz Shamsi.

    Not much interest from the fielding side. He look safe.

  13. Invincibles 92-4published at 30 balls left

    A full toss from Daniel Sams is skewered away by Sunil Narine but it's the only boundary from that set of five.

    88 needed off 30 balls. Big ask.

    I imagine this ground is pretty hard because of the rain overnight. The fielders have been very alert to the pace as well as spin bowling.

  15. Invincibles 85-4published at 35 balls left

    This game looks beyond the Invincibles here baring something very special.

    Jordan Cox is able to whack a four down the ground off Sam Cook but it's the only boundary from that set. Not enough at the moment.

    You just get a feeling now it's all going the Rockets' way. The bowlers have done very well here.

    Lucky that didn't prove costly. That was a brilliant piece of wicketkeeping there. Sam Curran tried hard for the Invincibles.

    Curran st Moores b Patel 27 (Invincibles 78-4)

    Well, that's the best way to make up for it Tom Moores!

    Sam Curran dances down the track to Samit Patel looking to go over the top. Patel spots him coming and fizzes it through and sharp glovework from Moores as he stumps Curran out of his ground.

    Moores celebrates by throwing the ball into the ground. He is still furious with himself for dropping that catch despite the stumping.

    He can't believe it! The ball was up for there for an eternity.

    Oh my word. Tom Moores has dropped a sitter! It's gone high off Sam Curran's bat but he doesn't have to move barely an inch but somehow lets it go straight through his gloves.

    The bowler, Samit Patel, looks at his team-mate in disbelief.
