Knights vs Reds, 9th Match at Dublin, Jul 07 2018 - Ball by Ball Commentary

RESULT
9th Match, Dublin, July 07, 2018, Cricket Ireland Inter-Provincial Twenty20 Trophy
(18.2/20 ov, T:166) 126

Knights won by 39 runs

New

Good catching by Knights and tight bowling didn't give Reds the chance to make it two wins in two days and they stay rooted at the bottom of the table. The Knights are up to second but it could be all over later toda

If Lightning beat Warriors in the second match they will win the T20 Trophy with a game to spare. Join me again for commentary on that one - the big game on Super Saturday - and that in just under two hours time. I'll be back just after 3.30
