    The Hundred 2025 results: Manchester Originals dominate in 10-wicket win over Trent Rockets

    Published on

    Manchester Originals completed only the third 10-wicket victory in the history of The Hundred women’s competition as they defeated Trent Rockets at Trent Bridge.

    Captain Beth Mooney hit 47 from 37 deliveries and Kathryn Bryce 61 from 45 as Originals chased their target of 112 with 18 balls to spare.

    England bowlers Sophie Ecclestone and Lauren Filer starred in the Rockets innings, taking 2-12 and 3-23 respectively as Originals restricted the home side to 111-7.

    Ecclestone picked up two stumpings, dismissing opener Nat Wraith and her England captain Nat Sciver-Brunt, who top-scored for Rockets with 34.

    Meanwhile Filer had Rockets skipper Ash Gardner caught by Ecclestone at long-on and then returned to remove Alana King and Ellie Threkeld in the final five balls of the innings.

    The top five for Rockets all made starts but failed to push on, and the home side struggled to hit boundaries after Sciver-Brunt’s dismissal, failing to breach the ropes after the 74th ball of the innings.

    The visiting openers had no such issues, with Mooney striking five fours and one six and Bryce eight fours as their record opening partnership for Originals set up a comprehensive victory.

    The win moves Originals into the play-off places with four wins from six matches, while Rockets remain in sixth with four defeats from five games.
