When Andy McBrine tossed the ball to Scott MacBeth, the Reds looked certain for victory. No one in the ground would have believed how things changed around. PJ Moor was always going to be the key wicket, and played beautifully for his century. Yet his wicket set off a chain of events with the Reds losing their last seven wickets for only 33 runs. What a day it's been for Scott MacBeth. Not only having his best day with the bat in his List A career, but starring with the ball as well. Quite rightly he has just been announced the player of the match With the Reds collapsing at the end, trying to chase this quickly, the Warriors pick up a bonus point for the win and end their opponents chance of lifting the IP50 title this year. It's between the Northern Knights and the Leinster Lightning to battle it out next week when the season finishes in Oakhill. I'm sure that you aren't going to want to miss that one. Once again, thanks for following my commentary today. Hope that you enjoyed it as much as I have. This is Justin saying goodbye from a sunlit Bready.

Match State: Drinks The games has been close all day, and we hit the final drinks break with not much between the teams. With being 6 down, will the Reds go for this bonus point? They need 73 more off only 36 balls. Or will they just be looking to go for the win now with all their main batters back in the hutch? Can the Warriors take these final four wickets and pick up their first win of the season? Time will tell Scott MacBeth has taken a wicket in every over so far, can he do the same after the drinks break?
