full and straight does the job. Millar plays around the delivery and his middle stump is knocked back. The Lightning win!

Full commentary
It was always going to be a tough task for the Warriors, and so it proved in the end. They needed someone to go big, although Balbirnie was their top scorer with 26.
The Lightning bowlers shared the wickets with Ruben Wilson and Harry Tector both picking up three each.
Which means another huge win for the Lightning as they win by 79 runs, picking up a bonus point for the win and putting them on the brink of defending the title.
Chris De Freitas has just been named the player of the match, with a fantastic catch to go with all those runs.
The final day of this festival is tomorrow, the Lightning play in the first game, and they could clinch the title. Make sure that you join me then.
This is Justin saying goodnight from Bready.
