Thrilling Finish: Birmingham Phoenix Triumphs Over Trent Rockets in The Hundred

In a nail-biting encounter at Trent Bridge, Birmingham Phoenix clinched a six-run victory against Trent Rockets in The Hundred men's competition. The match's decisive moment came in the final 10 deliveries, where all-rounder Dan Mousley, a former England Under-19 player, delivered a stunning performance by taking two crucial wickets and conceding just three runs. Mousley's impressive bowling restricted the Rockets, who needed 10 runs from the last 10 balls, to a total of 132-8.

Earlier in the match, Phoenix had set a target of 138-6, a score deemed slightly below par. Ben Duckett, returning from Test duty with the England team, contributed 21 runs off 17 balls, while England's Liam Livingstone added a quickfire 30 from 20 deliveries. The highlight of Phoenix's innings was Jacob Bethell's unbeaten 46 runs.

Trent Rockets' chase was anchored by Alex Hales, who scored 38 off 30 balls, and Joe Root, who added 33 from 19 balls, providing the team with a strong foundation. However, the team's lower order faltered under pressure. Tim Southee's crucial late wicket and a brilliant run-out by Adam Milne of Sam Hain led to a collapse from 125-3 to 132-8, sealing the victory for Phoenix.
