Match Report
9:09pm That's all from us here. Thanks for joining. See you tomorrow!
9:02pm Ben Duckett is the Meerkat Match Hero with 75 from 47 in Rockets' chase: "With Craig coming in and winning it like that was awesome.
"The pitch was good, it was just bouncy with the new ball so it (the ramp) felt like a good option to go to. Put them off their lengths so I could score in other areas. IT felt like the bowlers did a great job. That's what we didn't do the other day - take wicket throughout. In this format, the best way to restrict a team is by taking wickets."
[ON OVERTON V OVERTON]: "They've probably done that in the back garden for years! He's been awesome for Somerset this year. We're going to take a lot of confidence from this one."
8:58pm The brothers embrace at the end there, only for a moment before continuing their respective celebrations and introspections. Rockets get one over their former coach Andy Flower, who has now lost his first two matches with London Spirit...

Overton to Overton
And Rockets have won it! Dug in short, clipped via an under-edge pull around the corner... in between deep fine and deep backward square and Craig races through the striker's end stumps and celebrates wildly. Rockets take the victory by four wickets with two balls to spare...

Wide, length, open-face cut out to backward point... and just cut off. Comfortable two

Great yorker, dug out... and Overton makes it two with no one in the ring at midwicket!

Tye to Overton
On the pads, tickled around the corner and deep fine closes that down, but the throw is poor and Overton is back for two

Tye to Overton
Six over wide long on! Stunning strike from Craig Overton! Length from Tye, given the treatment

Tye to Santner
Yorker, on the toes as Santner retreats towards square leg, dabs down to long on but just for one as COverton sends his partner back

Tye to Santner
Pulled through midwicket! Short, sits up, not a great delivery and punished!

Milne to Gregory
Gregory gets hold of that length ball... but to Coles at deep midwicket! Not quite out of the screws, not enough to clear the longest side of the boundary

Milne to Santner
Length, into the top of leg stump, heaved out to the leg side but Brevis cuts it off at deep midwicket

Milne to Gregory
Full late tail into off stump, driven to mid on

Milne to Gregory
Length, into middle and off, Gregory edges that onto his pad but that doesn't stop a big appeal from the square fielders... no review taken

Milne to Billings
Slapped... straight to deep point! Milne with the set-up, short and wide, nailed by Billings but right to Brevis!

Zampa to Billings
Again wide of off stump, top edge sweep... and somehow out of the reach of the two fielders in that region. Tye eventually claims it after it lands, skidding a few feet from the sponge. A tidy set of 5 for Rockets...

Zampa to Billings
Full outside off, Billings sweeps out to deep midwicket, springs back for the second.... he's got the dive in but is that in vain?? What a dive... just gets in shot as Bairstow takes the gloves

Zampa to Billings
That's more like it! Full on middle, Billings gets low and sweeps that on the way over deep backward square! Cracking strike

Zampa to Billings
Fuller, outside off, Billing aims to do it again but gets in a tangle and almost takes that onto his own stumps! Could have swept that conventionally but wanted to go for the reverse

Zampa to Billings
Much-needed! What a strike from Billings, reverse-sweeping over cover for six! Serious shot...

Dug in again, hard length working for Overton, just a single out to deep square

Overton to Billings
Through Barstow's gloves! Billings ramps but is undone by the pace and Bairstow has his gloves in the right place but it goes right through them and away for four. Bairstow says he just didn't pick it up
