03 Why live tracking matters here
The Hundred is the fastest format in the game. A 100-ball innings runs about 65–75 minutes, which means:
- Scoring swings fast — a side can go from 40/2 to 80/2 inside 20 balls
- Wickets shift momentum — every dismissal removes a set batter
- Hitting comes in bursts — miss five minutes and you miss the acceleration
- The toss and first 25 balls often decide it
Live tracking lets you follow those swings from first ball to last.

- Projected total: the final score if the current rate holds

- After 50 balls: around 55/2 — middle phase

Birmingham Phoenix

Tammy Beaumont bats in the top three and typically anchors the powerplay.
Trent Rockets
Nat Sciver-Brunt and Beth Mooney can post 40–60 in the powerplay together, and their first 25 balls often set the tone for the whole innings.
Kim Garth is the bowler to watch. An economy under 7 per six balls is a strong return in this format.
