9.47pm: Rockets get back on track after defeat to Birmingham Phoenix last time out with their fourth win - and their first defending a total. They powered on to the front foot via Alex Hales' 22-ball fifty, and a target of 182 proved well beyond Invincibles, despite a valiant lone hand from Jordan Cox, who finished unbeaten on 61 from 33. Defeat for Invincibles, their second of the tournament, means they slip off the pace set by London Spirit and Rockets. Anyway, that's a wrap for tonight, we'll be back for more Hundred fun tomorrow. Bye!
Alex Hales is the Match Hero: "Really pleased to put on a good performance in front of the home crowd, bouncing back after the Birmingham game. [Malan partnership] Keep being aggressive, he's played incredibly well. The partnership has blossomed, left-hand, right-hand and we've enjoyed it. That was a huge win for us, to get the points against a really tough side."
