The Manchester Super Giants have clinched their first-ever Hundred title, defeating the Trent Rockets in a thrilling men's final. Despite a late wobble in their chase, a stellar performance from Tim Seifert, who smashed 72 off 38 balls, set the foundation for victory. Liam Dawson sealed the win with a six off the penultimate delivery, securing the championship for the Manchester franchise in their third attempt.
In the women's competition, the Trent Rockets emerged victorious, claiming their maiden title by comprehensively defeating the Sunrisers Leeds. The Rockets bowled out their opponents for a mere 91 runs and secured an eight-wicket victory at Lord's. This marks a significant achievement for the Trent Rockets, who were unable to secure the men's title in the same season, preventing them from becoming the first team to win both trophies.
