Sunrisers Leeds produced a dominant performance at Old Trafford to eliminate Manchester Super Giants from The Hundred women's competition. The Sunrisers posted 166 runs in their innings, anchored by Annabel Sutherland's forceful unbeaten 62 featuring powerful batting displays, before restricting their opponents to 125 in response despite favourable batting conditions.

Super Giants' reply never gathered momentum as Sunrisers' bowling attack, spearheaded by Jess Jonassen's three-wicket haul at minimal cost, dismantled the chase from the outset. The visitors struggled to build partnerships, with their desperation evident when they retired batter Kathryn Bryce during the innings, ultimately falling 41 runs short. Sunrisers' victory secures their progression to the knockout stages, where they will meet Southern Brave in Friday's Eliminator at The Oval.
