Sam Hain goes, hitting one from Bethell straight to Howell. That makes it 106-7 from 95 balls, six needed off five balls, three wickets left, and Bethell to bowl through having just taken the wicket. Max Holden comes in rather bizarrely at number nine.

Stoinis goes, caught by Livingstone off Bethell for 12 (13) and it is 89-6 after 79 balls, 23 needed off 21 balls. Another quick wicket would make things very interesting.

Linde is run out after a hesitation and it is 77-5 from 71 balls, 35 needed from 29 balls with five wickets left.

Livingstone done for the night with 1-17 from his 20 balls. Rockets 74-4 from 65 balls need 38 from the last 35 balls to win.

Patterson-White ends his spell with a second wicket, bowling Willey for 2 to make it 71-4 after 60 balls, 41 needed off 40 balls. Patterson-White 2-25 from his 20 balls.

Rockets now assured of a second place finish in the table.

Rockets can now no longer overhaul Invincibles on net run rate. They need a further 29 runs to ensure that they cannot drop below Superchargers into third place.

Birmingham Phoenix going badly enough now that Rockets might just get the thumping win they need to move ahead of Oval Invincibles on net run rate, and it is wildly unlikely even in the event of Phoenix somehow defending their total that Rockets will drop below Superchargers on net run rate. Phoenix 86-7 from 82 balls.
