Once again the Reds top order couldn't supply the base that they needed to chase down the Knights massive total. A 67 run seventh wicket partnership between McNally and Manley was really the only highlight with McNally looking impressive again with a well made 48 Both Foster and Mayes ended up with 3 wickets for the Knights, although only Humphreys ended up wicketless from the Knights bowlers as they produced a comfortable 99 run win. Mark Adair has just been named as player of the match for his 44 off only 11 balls. 14 minutes of chaos from the Knights Captain. Which helps the Knights to a bonus point and stay on the top of the table. Thanks for following on today. Hope that you enjoyed it and you'll join me again at 3.45pm for the second game today when the Lightning take on the Warriors. Until then, this is Justin Smyth saying goodbye from Dublin
