Ball by Ball Commentary & Live Score

Wow, what a match that was. It swung one way and then the other, both teams were on top for sections of the match. Yet the Knights just had enough firepower to win, with 2 balls remaining.

Greg Thompson came in and changed the Knights innings with his quick fire 44 off 22 balls. Although it was really Adam Dennison's 73 which was the backbone of today's victory.

The conditions out there must have affected the Warriors when they came back on after the rain. Although we did play out the two balls in pouring rain!

The Knights get the four points for the win and move into second place in the Hanley Energy IP50 table. The Warriors are routed to the bottom.

We will not have long to wait until the next game, tomorrow is the start of the 3 day game between these two teams. So thanks for following my commentary today.

This is Justin saying goodnight from a very rainy Waringstown.
