3.47pm: Huge total from Originals, the second-highest in the Hundred's one-and-a-bit seasons so far. Salt batted through the innings, getting them off to a bright start alongside Jos Buttler. Russell, Stubbs and Evans all played cameos, and apart from the miserly Samit Patel, all of Rockets' bowlers were pumped. Alan will be here shortly to talk you through the chase.
Samit Patel tells Sky: "It's about 20 over par but we have a good batting line-up and it's a good wicket. It's been really dry and you can play your shots on that wicket. We've had a decent start, hopefully we'll go one better"
Afeef: "76 runs from the last 25 balls, all starting with Stubbs' blast-off"

Wood to Evans, SIX, on a length, Evans shimmies down and clubs Wood back over his head for six! 89 metres, to complete a dominant batting performance

1lb
Wood to Salt, 1 leg bye, shuffles across to sweep the slower ball, hit on the pad, loud appeal. Rockets review after the not-out decision. Might just be missing leg stump, or have pitched just outside. No bat, hit just above the knee roll. Pitched outside leg stump, so the on-field decision is upheld. Just a leg bye

Wood to Salt, SIX, slower ball, in the slot, clears midwicket on the rope! Not quite out of the screws but enough power to send it 89 metres over Sams on the boundary
