  1. 50 balls to goBBC Sport

  2. Rockets 53-2

    Villani 19, Sciver 9

    And that is the boundary as Elyse Villani reverse sweeps Amanda-Jade Wellington for four.

  3. Tom Abell
    Somerset all-rounder on BBC radio

    Trent Rockets are struggling to find the boundary at the moment. But they are two high-quality players so if they can both get in and build a partnership, they will be able to take advantage at the end.

  4. Rockets 49-2

    You sense something is about to happen.

    Another Georgia Adams tidy set has built up even more pressure. The Rockets will need to flick a switch soon if they want to post a competitive score.

  5. Rockets 44-2

    Another quiet over from Freya Kemp with just singles and one two from it.

    It's all gone a little tactical right now. Where have the boundaries gone?

  6. Rockets 38-2

    Another tidy start to a set, this time from Australian Tahlia McGrath who goes for just three runs from her first three balls.

    But she goes a little too short next delivery and Elyse Villani flicks her away for four. The Rockets needed that boundary.

  7. Rockets 30-2

    Villani 6, Sciver 1

    Two singles to finish. The Brave, having chosen to bowl first, are well on top.

  8. Rockets 28-2

    Anya Shrubsole will bowl the next set. She starts with three dots to Nat Sciver.

    That's six balls for no runs for the England all-rounder now. The pressure builds.

  9. 75 balls to goBBC Sport

  10. Rockets 28-2

    Sciver blocks out the final three balls of Bell's set.

    And that's the powerplay. The Brave will be the happier with those two wickets.

  11. Alex Hartley
    Former England bowler on BBC Radio

    Kelly knew it was out as soon as she hit it, she was just trying to keep moving the score along quickly.

    That was almost a very nasty collision!

    WICKET

    Kelly c Dunkley b Bell 22 (Rockets 28-2)

    Instant impact!

    Lauren Bell has her second as Marie Kelly mistimes one, edging the ball high to Sophia Dunkley at cover, who just about avoids running into a teammate as she grabs hold of the ball..

    She falls for 22 off 15.

    Skipper Nat Sciver is next in.

  14. Rockets 28-1

    Kelly 22, Villani 5

    Marie Kelly is looking dangerous on 22 off 13. The Brave need to break this partnership before it gets too dangerous. They turn back to Lauren Bell who's on 1-4 after bowling the first five deliveries.

  15. Rockets 27-1

    New bowler, same result from Marie Kelly. She chips one over the covers for four.

  16. Rockets 22-1

    Good recovery from Kemp after that early four, going for just two more runs.

    Time for some spin now. In comes Georgia Adams.

  17. Alex Hartley
    Former England bowler on BBC Radio

    Lovely shot from Elyse Villani just splitting those two fielders perfectly. She put the bowler off by taking a little step down the wicket towards her.

  18. Rockets 20-1

    Villani 4, Kelly 16

    Shot.

    Elyse Villani gets her first runs of the day, taking two steps down the wicket before pulling Kemp for four.

    Marie Kelly scored the fastest fifty in women's T20 cricket earlier this season. It came off just 15 balls for Warwickshire against Gloucestershire.

  20. Rockets 15-1

    Good recovery from the Rockets. It looks like there's runs on this pitch.

    Freya Kemp will bowl the next set.
