Manchester Originals vs Trent Rockets, 7th Match, July 29, 2024 - Full Commentary

Thompson to Max Holden, out Caught by Sam Hain!! Thompson has done it. The Rockets crowd around Thompson in celebration. A length delivery on the stumps, sits up short, Max Holden pulls but can't keep it down, Hain at deep backward square leg is inside the fence, some 10-15 yards, had he been back, would have fallen short, it's straight to him and he takes it and slumps to the ground in excitement. Thompson started running as soon as he saw the ball in the air, so confident he was of Hain's catching ability. The Originals are shell-shocked. Max Holden c Sam Hain b Thompson 40(37) [4s-2 6s-1]

Thompson to Raza, out Raza Run Out!! Another twist. Raza mistimes the swipe to a low full-toss on the stumps, he finds mid-wicket and attempts to run, the throw is on the bounce to Thompson who just about has the ball in hand as he breaks the stumps. Raza is caught short. Drama. Raza run out (Gregory/Thompson) 21(12) [4s-1 6s-1]

Thompson to Raza, no run, a back of the hand slower ball outside off, extra bounce, Raza is beaten on the cut, a dot as Tom Banton is alert

Thompson to Raza, 2 runs, back of the hand slower ball on the stumps, swiped wide of deep square leg and the fielder does so well, parries it to Rashid and saves two

Sam Cook to Raza, FOUR, Raza is down but he has got four. A slower ball down leg, short fine-leg was in, Raza swivels and pulls over that man

Sam Cook to Max Holden, 1 run, slower ball full outside off, Max Holden drives and it's a soft edge, bounces to Tom Banton who underarms and misses, had he hit direct Raza was gone
