The Trent Rockets Story
Trent Rockets claimed The Hundred's second-ever men's title in 2022 — ending the tournament's opening season dominance by the Oval Invincibles. Nottinghamshire's franchise combined home-grown England talent with devastating overseas firepower to win the Lord's final and write their name into Hundred history.
The setting is everything for the Rockets. Trent Bridge — one of England's most picturesque and atmospheric grounds — provides an extraordinary backdrop for their home fixtures. Nottingham's passionate cricket following makes home games some of The Hundred's most electric occasions.
In 2026, the Rockets claimed the women's title, defeating Sunrisers Leeds in the final at Lord's on Finals Day. The men's team were runners-up again — losing to Manchester Super Giants — completing a memorable double-header day at Lord's for the Trent Bridge franchise.
