9.20pm: We've had a thriller, for the second time today - and a one-run win for the second time today. The home support won't be so happy about this one, having seen Originals snatch defeat from the jaws of victory: they needed two from three, only for Jordan Thompson to produce two dots, a run-out and a wicket from the final ball. Phew!
This is from our stats man, Sampath: "The Hundred had not seen a 1-run win margin before today across men's and women's comps. Both got their first on same day."
Tom Banton is the Match Hero: [Feeling?] "Very up and down. They played well to get to a close ending. That's what the Hundred's about, good game. [Form] My job is to put bowlers under pressure. When they're in my scoring zones I try to take it to them. At the start of the comp we talked about qualifying, two from two is a great start."
And here is Trent Rockets captain Lewis Gregory: [How?] "Not quite sure. We've got a brilliant attack. Was trying to hold a bit back to the end and push the button at the right time. We knew what ball we were trying to bowl, pace off worked well. About getting hard revs on it and thankfully it worked. Last year we were on the wrong side of a couple. We've got 11, 12, 13 guys that can win game of cricket. Weren't at our best but got there. [Fielding] Every run counts, don't think we missed a chance."
Okay, that was fun. See you tomorrow for Superchargers against Brave from Headingley. Bye!
