Full commentary
It's been a long day, although we finally have got to the end at 7.13pm. It's a comphrensive win for the Knights in front of their own fans.
A slow start to the innings wasn't helped by the regular rain delays, and if it hadn't been for McCarthy's quick fire 46 off only 18 balls, it would have been a lot worse
Cian Robertson was the pick of the bowlers and ended up with four wickets, and his best figures in a List A match. Helping the Knights to a 81 run win on DLS.
For his fantastic century for the Knights, Ben Caltiz has been named the player of the match. Well deserved too.
The Knights pick up five points for the win, to move clear at the top of the table. Luckily next week we will see all of the teams playing, so please join me then.
Thanks for following along today, I'm glad that we were able to bring you a result in the end. This is Justin saying goodnight from Stormont
