Trent Rockets kept their slim hopes of reaching The Hundred knock-out stages alive as they hammered Manchester Originals at Trent Bridge.

Chasing a lowly 108, the Rockets lost just one wicket as they reached their target with 36 balls to spare.

Lizelle Lee (44*) impressed alongside Bryony Smith and then Nat Sciver-Brunt, finishing the match with a six.

Originals had won the toss and chosen to bat, but only Deandra Dottin (30) fired for the visitors.

The Rockets move up to fourth in the table, but are three points short of the knock-out places with two games to play.
