Trent Rockets 140 for 4 (Allen 72*) beat Manchester Super Giants 137 for 3 (Buttler 55*, du Plooy 40*, Overton 3-23) by six wicketsBen Duckett fell second ball of Rockets' chase, castled by England team-mate Gus Atkinson after a failed attempt at a scoop. Unfazed, Billings and Allen got into their work, targeting both spin and seam, and reached a 50 partnership from 25 balls. Hosts Manchester Super Giants had earlier reached 38 for 0 at the end of the powerplay, only for Craig Overton to strike three times to rattle the home side. The shackles were broken when du Plooy cleared the ropes off the final delivery of Matt Henry's quota. Super Giants ended strongly.
