Full commentary

At the half way mark it seemed that the Warriors total was under par, and the Reds proved that in the end. They could have rocked after losing Modgill and Moor in consecutive balls, but then Curtis Campher came to the middle.

Campher judged the chase well, making sure that required run rate never got too excessive. When the boundary was needed, he hit it and has just been named the player of the match.

With the Reds hitting their target with 7 balls to spare, they pick up four points for the win and join the Warriors on 11 points for the season. Although the Warriors stay in third place by 0.08 on run rate.

It's been a lovely day for cricket here at Bready today, and I hope that you've enjoyed the commentary of this close game. We will all be back tomorrow morning when these two teams battle in the IP50. Play gets underway at 10.45am.

Until then, this is Justin Smyth saying goodnight!
