Sarah Bryce, Match Hero: I'm really pleased to get another win. We knew if just built partnerships together, they were runs out there, big pockets and you could run hard, and I think we did that really well. Jess is a great runner...(confidence form past experiences) especially in the chase when you know that you have done it before even in slightly different conditions, you can take that confidence and know you are never out of the game and you can use that to get you over the line. (Two wins away from home) think it's massive for confidence, they say winning is a habit and we had some tight games and different people have stood up at different times and I think as a team that is really exciting going forward in the tournament
The brilliant partnership between Sarah Bryce and Jess Jonassen made the difference; they navigated the ship through treacherous waters and got their side into supreme control, bossing the chase towards the end. Perhaps they took a little longer than they'd have wanted, but a win is a win. With two back-to-back wins and a third for the season, they have climbed to the top of the points table. Trent Rockets are languishing in 7th place with one win and three defeats; they need to turn things around quickly to stay in contention. 130 was a decent total on this pitch, which had plenty of assistance for bowlers and you really had to get yourself in to be able to find the rope. Rockets failed to pick up wickets at regular intervals and a few errors in the field under pressure made life easier for Fire, who continue along their merry way
Attendance at Trent Bridge was 10,693 today, a new record for The Women's Hundred!
