Table of Contents

Trent Rockets registered a comfortable 6-wicket victory over Oval Invincibles in a low-scoring The Hundred Women 2025 match at The Oval. The Invincibles posted a modest total of 109/7 after a challenging innings. In response, the Rockets chased down the target of 110 with ease, reaching the required runs with 16 balls to spare. Grace Scrivens‘ crucial knock of 34 guided the Rockets across the line in this tightly contested match.

The Invincibles could not capitalize on a solid start and faltered to a total of 109/7. The opening partnership fell early, with Lauren Winfield-Hill and Alice Capsey contributing just 7 and 15 runs, respectively. Meg Lanning‘s determined 45 off 35 balls looked like it might form the basis for a bigger total, but with wickets falling regularly around her, the Invincibles struggled to accelerate.

The middle order, including Marizanne Kapp (7), Amanda-Jade Wellington (7) and Phoebe Franklin (4), failed to build substantial partnerships, leaving the team at a significant disadvantage. Despite a brief partnership between Paige Scholfield and Kalea Moore towards the end, the Invincibles finished their 100 balls with just 109 runs on the board. The Rockets’ bowlers, particularly Kirstie Gordon (2/21) and Heather Graham (1/27), kept the pressure on, with their disciplined spells restricting the Invincibles from reaching a competitive total.

Chasing 110 runs, the Rockets had a steady start, with Bryony Smith (24) and Scrivens (34) combining for a solid partnership. Scrivens, in particular, was in fine form, striking at a rate of 125.92, while Smith kept up with her at a strike rate of 114.28. The pair added 51 runs for the first wicket, giving the Rockets a solid foundation for the chase. Although both were dismissed in quick succession, Ashleigh Gardner (11) and Heather Graham (19 not out) kept things on track. The Rockets’ top-order managed to absorb the pressure, and the chase never seemed in doubt. The team wrapped up the match in 84 balls, winning by 6 wickets, and Grace Scrivens’ all-around performance earned her the Player of the Match award.
