21.58 IST: Birmingham Phoenix Women have sealed a victory here. They have done that, they have registered a win by 8 wickets and won their second game on the trot. Earlier after winning the toss, they had invented Trent Rockets to bat first and with their exceptional bowling and ordinary catching, they restricted them to 116/6 in 100 balls. Villani(33) and Sciver(31) were the only standouts for them and with their contributions, they managed to pass the 100 mark.
Chasing 117, Birmingham lost their opener and skipper Sophie Devine(16) and in the span of a few overs, she was joined by her partner Evelyn Jones(11) in the dressing room. But after that the wicketkeeper-batter Amy Jones(36*) along with Ellyse Perry(20*) stood tall for them. The duo added unbeaten 78 runs for the third wicket stand and sealed a win for their side. Alana King and Natalie Sciver were the only wicket-takers for Trent Rockets.
With this win, Birmingham Phoenix Women will be the new table toppers of the competition with four points and two wins in two games under their name. Hold on for the presentation.

Amy Jones | Player of the Match: "Felt quite difficult, the run rate was creeping up. It was challenging to find the boundary because of how tightly they bowled. Perry and I are sparring. She has a world of experience, she remained calm and played her shot at the end. She(Arlott) has been excellent the entire year, so her success is brilliant. The bowlers deserve a lot of credit. We had a really good day in the outfield - maybe not behind the stumps. We want to maintain momentum because the games are coming so fast."
