What a fantastic win for the the Reds, PJ Moor was brilliant with the bat and his 95* is by far and away the best batting performance of the IP20 so far.

After losing those early wickets, Moor and Carty did well to blunt the Lightning attack and build a steady partnership. Matt Ford then came in and gave Moor the strike to power the Reds forward.

That's three losses in a row now for the Lightning, that's never happened before, although in truth they were well beaten today. Apart from those two early wicket for McCarthy, they never looked like taking another wicket.

The Lightning are now bottom of the table.

The truth is that the Reds deserved that win today, better with the ball, better with the bat and showing that they are here to compete, not make up the numbers.

The Reds have also moved into second place in the table, ahead of the Knights on runrate.

You won't be surprsied to here that PJ Moor has just been named player of the match. Well deserved.

What a first day we have had here at Bready Cricket Club. What will tomorrow bring? Hopefully a bit less wind and some more great action out in the middle!

Thanks for following along today, hopefully you'll be back to join me tomorrow morning from 10am, until then this is Justin Smyth saying goodnight, Goodnight!
