hits the pad and goes into the legside. Its all over, the Warriors win!
NW Warriors vs Knights, at Strabane, Aug 05 2016 - Match Result
In the end the Warriors win the game by 52 runs. The Knights got off to a slow start, Smith's 20 took 33 balls.
So they were always behind the run rate, Getkate top scored with 30 but none of the Knights could kick on.
The Warriors get a bonus point for the win and will finish the Hanley Energy IP20 competition on 9 points. Safely in second place.
For the Knights all that they get is the wooden spoon.....
We don't have long to wait until the next game between these two teams. Sunday brings the IP50 game at Waringstown. So please join me then.
Thanks for following my commentary today, this is Justin Smyth saying good night from Strabane.
Scanlon goes for a slower ball, McKinley gets through the shot too quickly and it hits the pad
pulls the ball to McBrine at mid-wicket, he throws at the non-strikers end and misses
hits the ball back over the bowlers head and can't get back for a second
gets on in the slot and hits it over the long-off boundary
McKinley charges down the pitch and misses the ball
cuts the ball through cover point, Rankin slips as he goes for the ball. So they get a single, last over coming up!
cuts the ball through backward point and it races to the boundary
this is sloppy from the Warriors. Its wide of off-stump and Dougherty just doesn't stop the ball.
another overthrow from Rankin, the ball gets cut to him at point. For some unknown reason Rankin throws at the stumps. No point in that at all
tries a slower ball and it goes down the legside. Dougherty makes a good diving stop
pushes the ball into the covers
pull shot into the legside, misses and hits the pad. Goes down to third man
38 an over the Knights need now, this isn't going to happen.....
drops the ball into the on-side and they run through quickly
straighter ball from Thompson, McKinley tucks the ball into the on-side
gets on the front foot and drive the ball up to long-on, its wide enough to get a second
pulls the ball down to square leg
hits the ball to long-off
defends the ball into the covers
hits the pad and it goes past the keeper
