its a straight ball and Scanlon was just looking to get any part of the bat on the ball. Missed and is hit on the pads, the appeal goes up and as the Umpire raises the finger, Getkate collapses to the floor.

Full commentary
What is it with Cricket and close finishes? Now this might not have been the Ashes but it came right down to the wire.
After the experienced Porterfield and Thompson fell, you had the feeling that the Knights were going to steamroller over the Warriors tail. Although a very accomplished 48 on debut from Smale, along with some big hitting from Humeat the end.
Meant that the Warriors pushed them all the way to the end. You could feel the tension in the ground as Getkate came in to bowl the final over.
2 runs, that's all it came down to in the end. Two runs.
Gary Wilson used his spinners very well and at the end of the match, his most experienced seamer too.
The Knights take the four points from the game and end up second in the InterPro 50 this year. So well done to them.
The great news is that we won't have long to wait until the next game between these two. Tomorrow morning we all head to Bready for the final game in this years Championship. The great news is all three teams are still in the hunt for that trophy.
Please join from 10:30am tomorrow for Day 1.
Until then, this is Justin saying goodnight from Eglinton.

So 11 required off the last over, although surely the wrong person is on strike for the Warriors. Somehow Scanlon needs to get one and get Hume back on strike. Is this Scanlon's Leech moment?
Long chat going on between Wilson and his bowler.
