04:56


Bryony Smith top-scored for the Rockets with 64 from 40 balls, while Amy Jones hit 46 not out for the Phoenix. However, despite a late rally, the Phoenix fell short of their target of 135.

Trent Rockets now need to win their final game of the season and hope that Welsh Fire lose both of their remaining matches to qualify.

Birmingham Phoenix, who have already been eliminated, remain bottom of the table without a win.
