  1. Rockets 37-2published at 30 balls

    Lamb comes back well after that boundary, just two more runs from her last three deliveries.

  2. Rockets 35-2published at 27 balls

    Glorious shot! Just a little shuffle down the track from Du Preez and she thumps Emma Lamb's floaty off spinner away through the covers for four.

  4. Rockets 30-2published at 25 balls

    Not quite the start that Ecclestone would have wanted, seven runs from her first five balls.

    A long hop to finish is what cost her, Smith was able to go back, swivel and thump the ball away to the fence.

  5. Today's key match-up: Ecclestone v Du Preezpublished at 11:19 British Summer Time 13 August 2022

    Sophie Ecclestone is on to bowl the last five balls of the powerplay. She's the number one bowler in the world in the women's game and with the Rockets already under pressure, she could really turn the screw.

    With Nat Sciver missing, Mignon du Preez has a big role to play in the middle-order for the Rockets. The South Africa international has heaps of experience and will need it all to keep out Ecclestone and get the Rockets moving again.

    Dan O'Brien: Ellie Threlkeld seems SO up for this today.

    Bryony Smith has been starved of the strike. I feel like I haven't seen her face a ball in ages.

  8. Rockets 23-2published at 20 balls

    That wicket ball was clocked at 75mph, sharp from Dottin.

    It's a really good start from the West Indies all-rounder, a leg side wide to Mignon du Preez - the South African in at number four for the Rockets - is the only run from the set.

    It's disappointing for Kelly there. She is looking to pull, it's not the worst thing to do, but unfortunately the ball crept up a little be quicker on to her.

    Kelly c Threlkeld b Dottin 9 (Rockets 21-2)

    Too quick from Dottin and gloved behind!

    There was an appeal for caught behind the ball before, there was nothing doing with that but there's no doubt about this one.

    Kelly tried to pull it, was late on the shot and the ball looped behind down the leg side. A simple catch for Ellie Threlkeld.

    Jack: YESSS Hannah! Picking up the first Originals wicket! I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again Hannah Jones is one of the country's most underrated bowlers.

  12. Rockets 21-1published at 15 balls

    Top shot! Too much width from Potts and Kelly flays the ball away, up and over extra cover.

    There was a bit of swing for Potts in that five but Kelly has been waiting to pounce on anything remotely loose.

    I'm really excited for Grace Potts she plays with me at Central Sparks.

    She'll be nervous but also really excited.

  14. Rockets 17-1published at 12 balls

    Grace Potts ins on for the next five and Marie Kelly heaves her second ball leg side, past mid on for four.

    Kelly has shown her intent from the off here.

  15. Rockets 13-1published at 10 balls

    Jones is punished for dragging the ball short to Smith, who goes back and pulls it away to the boundary.

    Nearly a wicket next ball, though, Smith advances but yorks herself and is thankful to see a thick inside edge miss the stumps and run away towards fine leg. A couple more to the Rockets tally.

    Meanwhile, ball-tracking showed a review would have saved Villani earlier in the set...

    It's a big appeal for lbw and she's gone.

    There was a little conversation between the batters, there is a review on offer but [that looks out].

    Villani lbw b H Jones 4 (Rockets 5-1)

    Big wicket! Hannah Jones strikes with her first ball!

    Villani went to the reverse sweep first up against the left-arm spinner, missed and is hit in front.

    The umpire's finger goes up, I fancy it might have been sneaking down leg but there is no review and the Originals have their first wicket.

  18. Rockets 5-0published at 5 balls

    Smith pulls for the first run of the day, the only run from the first four balls.

    However, after missing with a ramp the ball before, Elyse Villani takes a more conventional option to end the over, a square drive that beats the in-field and runs away for four. Lovely shot.

    Bowling first and chasing scores down seems to be the way for Hundred sides this season.

    It's exactly what Kate Cross is looking to try and do here.

  20. Rockets 0-0published at 1 ball

    Cross bowl the first ball of the day to Bryony Smith and is is nudged into the off side for no run. Solid start from Cross.
