Trent Rockets beat defending champions Sunrisers Leeds by five runs at Trent Bridge, extending their winning streak to three matches. The match is decided by how well Rockets manage a late surge from Sunrisers, despite earlier momentum building pressure in the closing overs.
Annabel Sutherland delivers a key late performance for Sunrisers, remaining unbeaten on 59 as she drives the chase forward and helps set up an intense finish. Lauren Winfield-Hill also contributes during the late stages, as the defending champions push hard for the target.
Rockets, however, keep their lead and withstand the late assault, earning the narrow victory. The result means Sutherland’s unbeaten 59 and Sunrisers’ late fightback do not secure the win, and Rockets complete the job to finish five runs ahead.
