Ooohhh, that's not ideal. Liam Livingstone chases Alex Hales' flick to the long-on fence and doesn't look too happy with the state of his right shoulder as he flings the return back.

Root down the pitch straight away. Single to cover to get off the mark.

For Trent Rockets, it's must win and hope.

For Birmingham Phoenix, it's must win and hope a lot!

Joe Root and Alex Hales are making their way through the smoke from the fireworks at Trent Bridge. Chris Woakes is marking out his run-up.

Don't forget you can watch the Rockets-Phoenix match on BBC Two and at the top of this page, where you'll also find radio commentary of both matches. We'll bring you the best clips, too.

One thing to note with that Trent Rockets men's team, still no Dawid Malan, an England batter who has lost his place in the same week he was named in the squad going to the World Cup.

Southern Brave: Danni Wyatt, Smriti Mandhana, Maia Bouchier, Georgia Adams, Freya Kemp, Chloe Tryon, Maitlan Brown, Kalea Moore, Anya Shrubsole, Rhianna Southby, Lauren Bell.

Oval Invincibles: Lauren Winfield-Hill, Suzie Bates, Alice Capsey, Marizanne Kapp, Paige Scholfield, Cordelia Griffith, Nadine de Klerk, Mady Villiers, Ryana MacDonald-Gay, Eva Gray, Sophia Smale.

Down at the Ageas Bowl, Oval Invincibles have won the toss and chosen to bat first against Southern Brave.

Brave have already qualified for the knockouts but will look to secure top spot and direct passage to the final.

Invincibles are just about in contention but need a win today and several other results to go their way to have a any chance.

Trent Rockets: Alex Hales, Joe Root, Tom Kohler-Cadmore, Colin Munro, Sam Hain, Daniel Sams, Lewis Gregory, Matt Carter, Luke Wood, Ish Sodhi, Sam Cook.

Birmingham Phoenix: Will Smeed, Ben Duckett, Jamie Smith, Liam Livingstone, Moeen Ali, Chris Benjamin, Benny Howell, Chris Woakes, Adam Milne, Tanveer Sangha, Kane Richardson.

Trent Rockets captain Lewis Gregory: "We were going to have a bat so I'm not disappointed. The three games here so far have been won by the team batting first so we were going to have a crack at that anyway.

"The three defeats have been by small margins and we haven't quite been at our best but hopefully we can bring that in the last two games and sneak into the play-offs."

Birmingham Phoenix Moeen Ali: "The wicket looks decent but we just want to keep ourselves in the game.

"We've done a lot of things right but it just hasn't quite happened for us. We've played on some tough wicket and have just missed the crucial parts in the game.

"It would be nice to win the last two couple of games and see what happens."

No messing about here, two games of The Hundred about to get under way. Trent Rockets and Birmingham Phoenix in the men's competition, Southern Brave v Oval Invincibles in the women's. The latter is a repeat of the past two finals.

Right then, who's up for some cricket?
