The Hundred 2024 results: Birmingham Phoenix stun Trent Rockets

All-rounder Dan Mousley took two wickets and conceded just three runs off the final 10 deliveries at Trent Bridge to help Birmingham Phoenix edge past Trent Rockets in the Hundred’s Men’s competition.

The Rockets needed 10 off the final 10 balls but were squeezed by former England Under-19 player Mousley, 23, who finished with figures of 3-9.

Tim Southee also took a late wicket and Adam Milne superbly ran out Sam Hain as the Rockets collapsed from 125-3 to 132-8 to lose by six runs.

Having been put into bat the Phoenix posted a slightly under par 138-6 with Ben Duckett – who was playing his first match of this season’s Hundred having been on Test duty with the England team – hitting 21 off 17.

England’s Liam Livingstone struck 30 from 20 deliveries while Jacob Bethell finished on 46 not out.

In response, Alex Hales’ 38 off 30 and Joe Root’s 33 off 19 gave the Rockets a formidable platform, but the team’s tail had no response for Mousley’s heroic final spell.
