What a fascinating game it turned out to be, keeping us on the edge of our seats right till the last ball! The momentum kept swinging but Kathryn Bryce managed to keep her calm when it mattered the most. Trent Rockets got plenty on the board on a track that suited change-ups and cutters, and the batters had to time it really well to find scoring opportunities. Earlier, Laura Wolvaardt set the tone upfront with a barrage of boundaries, but her run-out in the powerplay ended the brief pyrotechnics - she was looking very dangerous. From there on, the batters took some time before pressing on the accelerator again and set up a platform for a decent total. Eve Jones and Sophie Ecclestone's aggressive intent paid dividends as they guided Originals to 137. Rockets will rue how they botched up the chase even though they were going strongly in the first half and got a partnership going between captain Nat Sciver-Brunt and Ashleigh Gardner. That said, it was a Hundred classic as both teams kept coming back in a fierce tussle, giving us a thrilling finish

As always, it's a double-header, and the Men's game is about to start shortly. The comms engine is running full-throttle so switch over to this tab. On behalf of Thilak and Vairavan, it's me, Rvel, saying goodbye.

Match Hero Filer said: "It was a real team performance today. Everyone did their job and it's just so good to get over the line. The pitch is actually a bit slower than last game. We batted very, very well on it and we thought it was a good total. We talked about doing the simple things for longer and nailing our skills, and I think we did that today."

Rohantha: "Lauren Filer won the match for the Originals with her desperate diving stop on the line which saved a couple. Thoroughly deserves the Player of the Match award."

Bryce to Nat Sciver-Brunt, 2 runs, Pushed through and whipped away to Ecclestone at deep midwicket, plenty of oomph behind the shot but couldn't place it in the gap, Originals hold their nerve and manage to edge out Rockets but what a contest! Rockets were cruising at the halfway stage but like I said in the build-up things can change so dramatically in Hundred. Credit to Originals to pull it back and build up dots and fighting till the very end. Originals have got their first win of the season! Nat Sciver-Brunt will be feeling terrible after scoring a fifty but still not being able to get her team over the line, it was a game of fine margins

Muzahid: "Is Mahika Gaur playing in this edition? If yes then which team? nope, she's been ruled out with a side strain (would've been with the Originals)

Bryce to Graham, 1 run, Back of a length wide of off, forehands it down to long-off and leaves it all to the captain. Come to think of it, Rockets left plenty of runs in the end

Bryce to Gardner, OUT, Slammed in on a length at off, she gets underneath it and launched it high into the sky but hasn't got the distance, Mooney at wide long-on moves to her right and has taken a gem, twist in the tale. Wanted to finish the game in style but got perished in her attempt for a glory shot.

Bryce to Gardner, FOUR, Whacks it away with gusto, Bryce crumbling under pressure, serves up a juicy half-volley outside off, no pace to cause any trouble, she backs away and clatters it into the covers

Bryce to Gardner, FOUR, Oh dear me! starts off with a duff full one down the leg side, all she had to do was get some bat on it, slogs it away from deep fine for a four

Filer to Gardner, FOUR, Fired in fuller with a hint of inward seam movement, carted through the gap at deep midwicket and cow corner, gets the much-needed boundary and keeps them in the hunt, 13 off last five required, sit tight!
