Tournament "Sotnia", Trent Bridge

Brave won by six wickets

17-year-old left-handed spinner Tilly Courtin-Koulmen showcased an impressive performance, taking 4-13 and helping "Southern Brave" defeat "Trent Rockets" in the "Sotnia" tournament. Brave, who won four out of four matches, reduced Rockets to 55-8, the first time since Kirsty Gordon scored 32 runs off 27 balls, allowing the team to reach 106.

Courtin-Koulmen became one of the key players, joining the ranks of England's Nat Silver-Brant and others. Lauren Bell, a speedy bowler, also excelled, taking 3-16 and becoming the leader in wickets in this year's tournament.

In response to this, Brave began their innings not very confidently, but thanks to Bucher (42) and Devin (41*), the team managed to surpass the target with two balls remaining.

In the men's tournament, "Trent Rockets" achieved a victory over "Southern Brave" by four runs, despite the serious injury of Adam Housa, who broke his collarbone during the game.

Housa was taken to the hospital, while Rockets, having suffered a loss, struggled to cope with the situation due to Tom Mursu, who scored 55 off 30 balls. This victory brought Rockets to a level equal to the leaders of the "Northern Superstars".
