    Annette Aitken-Drummond: Alana King. She's in a class of her own that lass.

    Karl Seed: Alana King is having a field day out there with bat and ball!

    Darren: Alana King! As close to the perfect hat-trick as you'll ever see.

  2. Originals 55-7published at 35 balls left

    Need 65 runs to win

    Well that's a much-needed boundary for the Originals as Ami Campbell hits Sarah Glenn back down the ground for a straight-drive four.

    The Originals will need to go big now.

    It's been incredible. If I was a young girl in the crowd, I'd be thinking, 'I want to be like you.' It's been unbelievable.

    What a spell this is.

    Old Trafford is silent. The home supporters are in shock.

    Another appeal for lbw and Alana King is down on one knee pleading with the umpire. Is it four in four?

    Looking back on the replay: not out.

  8. Originals 45-7published at 44 balls left

    Need 74 runs to win

    Is that four in four?

    New batter Threlkeld is struck on her pad by Alana King. But it's always going down and they wisely choose not to review it.

    She's got it! Hat-trick for Alana King! Almost an Imran Tahir celebration! A magical hat-trick!

    Cross b King 0 (Originals 45-7)

    She's done it!

    What a delivery, Kate Cross is clean bowled. A brilliant hat-trick is completed with a beauty of a delivery.

    That's the first hat-trick EVER in the women's Hundred.

    Gone first ball. The Rockets are favourites now. Sophie Ecclestone is lbw first ball. They've got the review but she knows she's a goner.

    That emphatically swings momentum and the whole feel of the game to the Rockets.

    Kate Cross will face Alana King's hat-trick chance...

    Hat-trick chance!

    Ecclestone is hit plumb on her front leg. No point reviewing that!

    Sophie Ecclestone comes in for the Originals. She'll either get on with it or get out. That's kind of her way!

    She'll be disappointed with that. It's another great breakthrough for the Rockets and the pressure has definitely shifted to the Originals.

    Griffith b King 12 (Originals 45-5)

    One shot too many.

    Cordelia Griffith swings at one which is too tight to her body and is clean-bowled.

    Sophie Ecclestone is the next batter in. The Originals are staring down the barrel.

    Lovely shot, up and over mid off for four. Lovely use of the feet from Griffith.

    Much-needed. Cordelia Griffith steps down the ground and launches King for a classy four down the ground.

    I appreciate that 50 balls isn't a long time but Manchester Originals need to build a partnership and then the pressure can switch onto Trent Rockets, who are definitely in the better position right now.
