McBrine backs away to leg and cuts the ball past a diving cover fielder, runs all the way to the boundary and the Warriors win.
Knights vs NW Warriors, 7th Match at Bready, PRO T20, Jun 10 2022 - Ball by Ball Commentary
NW Warriors won by 6 wickets (with 5 balls remaining) (D/L method)
It was fitting that Andy McBrine finished off the Innings in front of his hometown fans. Although Shane Getkate was the star of that Warriors chase with a blistering 46* off only 26 balls.
The Knights bowlers weren't able to create any real pressure and a boundary ball was always there to be hit.
The result means that the Warriors move within two points of the Reds at the top of the table, the Knights stay pointless at the bottom of the table.
Shane Getkate has just been named player of the match.
It's only 10 minutes until the toss in the second match of the day, so hopefully you'll be able to join me then for the Reds vs Lightning. Until then, this is Justin Smyth saying goodbye from Bready.
McBrine is on strike for the final over as the Warriors need only 2 more runs for the victory.

Sadly for Manley, he is bowled out today. So the hatrick ball is going to have to wait till tomorrow...
Hume is the next bat in
gone for a golden duck! Swings hard at the ball, takes the outside edge and it's a simple catch for the keeper.
Doheny comes out of the crease and pulls the ball high towards cow corner. This time the wind doesn't help the batter as the ball holds up in the air. Adair pouches the ball safely

Getake gets a bit lucky there. Thick edges the ball down into the ground, it bounces up over the head of short third and runs into the boundary in front of us
Tidy over there for Humphreys, Pretorius is being replaced, here is Manley
