  "account": "In the Women's Hundred competition, Trent Rockets secured a thrilling victory against defending champions Sunrisers Leeds by five runs. The match took place at Trent Bridge, where Rockets' Dunkley scored a half-century off 29 balls before failing to capitalize on her performance. Despite their initial lead, Rockets' hopes were dashed as Sunrisers mounted a late fightback. Sunrisers' Sutherland and Phillips restricted Rockets to 134-5, while Dunkley's 56* helped set a formidable target. However, Sunrisers' Sutherland proved too strong, finishing the match with an unbeaten 59 off 30 balls and taking crucial wickets. Sunrisers required 17 runs off the final five balls, but Winfield-Hill's run-out with three deliveries left - securing a five-run victory for Trent Rockets. This win extends Rockets' winning streak to three matches and pushes them to within four points of top-ranked Southern Brave.",
