    Brilliant wicket from Sam Cook. He's tried the yorker a few times in this set, but he's absolutely nailed that one.

    Jacks b Cook 11 (Invincibles 29-0)

    Gone!

    A really full ball from Sam Cook and Will Jacks unleashes an almighty swing of the bat but the ball rattles into his stumps instead.

    You miss, I hit.

    With 13 runs so far, that's Roy's highest score in the competition this year. We know he's going to score more, but will it be tonight?

    Invincibles 25-0published at 86 balls left

    Jason Roy, with his shiny green helmet on, is smiling through the grill to Will Jacks at the non-striker's end.

    He dispatches Daniel Sams for a four through cover, but he is looking more like him old self next ball.

    He steps across and launches the left-arm seamer high into the stands down the ground. Massive hit.

    He looks calm, Jason Roy. I think the crowd reaction is going to work in his favour.

    Spot on, Alex. Umpire's call on that one so the Rockets keep the review.

    I don't think this is out, I think it's missing leg stump.

  8. Rockets reviewpublished at 20:44 British Summer Time 17 August 2022

    Will Jacks gets himself in a bit of tangle to a full delivery from Sam Cook and is struck on his back leg.

    The Rockets go for the review.

  9. Invincibles 11-0published at 91 balls left

    Safety first from Jason Roy as he nudges Sam Cook away for a single.

    Next ball Will Jacks throws the bat at it but it's not off the meat of the ball and thuds into the Trent Bridge turf.

  10. Invincibles 8-0published at 95 balls left

    Will Jacks looks in decent touch and wallops left-arm quick Luke Wood to the boundary for four. The Invincibles up and running.

    I think anyone who's a white-ball cricket fan, will want Jason Roy to score runs here.

    Trent Rockets and their supporters are going to be on the back of Jason Roy.

  13. Invincibles 3-0published at 99 balls left

    Fierce and quick from Luke Wood's first legal ball after he starts with a couple of wides.

    He gets one to shape into the pads of Jason Roy and there's a half-hearted appeal for lbw. The England batter takes a deep breath.

    Luke Wood, who is sharp, will bowl the first over for Trent Rockets. He's at the top of his mark.

    The players of Trent Rockets are having the customary team huddle, the Oval Invincibles opening pair, Jason Roy and Will Jacks, are striding out to the middle.

    We are not too far away.

    I can't wait for the reception when Jason Roy comes into bat.

    Here's some of those fearful blows struck from the bat of Alex Hales from a little earlier...

    We can see a fabulous run chase if Oval Invincibles get close to it. It's a competitive total for sure. It's the third-highest score of The Hundred this year, and fifth-highest of all time!

    Thanks Ffion. Tremendous stint.

    That was a particularly tasty knock from Alex Hales wasn't it?

    Jason Roy, who hasn't exactly been in sparkling form, will now get his chance at the top of the order for Oval Invincibles.

    So, have Trent Rockets got enough?

    Is it Jason Roy's moment to shine?

    Here's Timothy Abraham to take you through the chase.
