'Three-peat' achieved as Rockets can't stop Invincibles

FAVOURITES ARE DOMINANT TO CLAIM HUNDRED CROWN AT LORD'S

- ECB REPORTERS NETWORK SUPPORTED BY ROTHESAY

TRENT Rockets men were overpowered as Oval Invincibles made it three titles in a row in The Hundred, winning the final by 26 runs.

Sam Billings' side were much-fancied going into the campaign and they've relished their favourites tag, topping the group with six wins out of eight. They continued their dominance in front of 27,912 fans at Lord's, demonstrating their class to pull off their 'three-peat'.

They bucked their own trend by opting to bat first, having generally favoured chasing throughout the competition, and their 168-5 proved far too tall a task for the Rockets.
