Trent Rockets moved up to second in The Hundred standings after handing Manchester Super Giants a first defeat of the women's season at Old Trafford.
Despite the absence of England captain Nat Sciver-Brunt, the Rockets ran up 153 for eight thanks to Sophia Dunkley's 57 off 33 balls, with Sophie Luff contributing 51 off 26 deliveries.
While Australia star Beth Mooney was dismissed for just two, Dunkley and Luff, batting in Sciver-Brunt's usual position of number three, put on 91 to anchor the innings.
Sophie Ecclestone collected a couple of wickets as the Rockets lost their way but a 154 target proved too much for the Super Giants, who were all out for 122 in 93 balls.
Rockets captain Ash Gardner was excellent with four for 16 while Dunkley also claimed three catches as Super Giants, previously unbeaten in three, slipped to a 31-run loss.
