Full commentary
A very comfortable chase in the end for the Lightning, guided by a wonderful half-century at the top from Balbirnie, the Knights bowlers couldn't create any pressure.
A quick fire 28* off only 14 balls from Harry Tector, kept the momentum going once Balbirnie fell. It took under 45 minutes for the Lightning to chase the Knights total down.
The Lightning always knew that they had to chase the target down within the 16 overs, didn't matter how many wickets they lost along the way. Which means that they pick up the five points for the win and pip the Reds for the title.
Barry McCarthy has been named the player of the match for his best every List A T20 figure, seeing that this is his club ground, will go down nicely with the fans in the ground.
Well done to the Lightning for claiming the title and it won't be long until the trophy is presented to the team, I'm sure that they will get a good cheer from the fans that are in the ground today.
That just leaves me to thank you for follow my comms over the last three days. In fact, now that the Interpros are over again for another year, thank you for following my comms over the past three months
We've seen some great cricket up and down the Island of Ireland, I can't wait to see what next year brings. Hope to see you all then, until then. This is Justin Smyth saying goodnight from Dublin. Goodnight!
