- BATSMENRB4s6sSR41.4 Toppingâs Innings is over. Looked to power the ball over the top of mid-off, just wasnât able to put enough power into the shot and the fielder is in the right place to take the catch. What a way to start the season 218/241.1 A full toss gets a wicket! Balbirnie angles the bat and hits the ball towards deep square leg. There is never enough power in the shot to clear the fielder and he doesnât have to move as the ball picks him out. Ends an excellent debut 217/147.5 Egan powers the ball flat towards long-off. Humphreys takes a couple of steps to his right and takes the catch. Doesn't really celebrates as he throws the ball back to the middle 253/545.3 plays across the line, the ball is straight and would have hit the stumps if MacBeth's front pad hadn't got in the way. It's plumb and the Umpires finger goes up. 239/347.2 nicks the ball through to the keeper! Melly looked to hit down the ground, gets some bat on the ball and doesn't wait for the Umpires finger to go up before he storms away from the middle 247/4Extras12 (b 1, lb 1, nb 2, w 8)TOTAL283/5 (50 Overs, RR: 5.66)Fall of wickets: 1-217 (Andy Balbirnie, 41.1 ov), 2-218 (Sam Topping, 41.4 ov), 3-239 (Scott MacBeth, 45.3 ov), 4-247 (Cameron Melly, 47.2 ov), 5-253 (Jake Egan, 47.5 ov)

- BATSMENRB4s6sSR28.2 huge wicket for the Warriors! Carmichael sweeps the ball around the corner, seems to top edge it a little and the fielder dives forward at short fine leg to take the catch. 169/320 The Warriors have a wicket! McCollum looks to come out of the crease to get to the ball early. McBrine sees him coming and pushes the ball a little wider. Once McCollum missed the ball, Topping whips off the bails 128/122.4 the batter goes back deep in the crease and looks to work the ball legside. The ball seems to keep a little low, played over the top of the ball and it's plumb in front of the stumps. 139/228.4 It's all happening here as Macbeth strikes twice in two balls. They had put a slip in for Leckey and the ball comes off his outside edge and goes straight to the fielder. Is this game about to turn? 170/439 Rock flicks the ball in the air towards the square leg boundary. Itâs catching practice for the fielder as the ball never gets enough elevation. Looks like the Warriors are going to get a chance to attack the Knights tail. 222/634.3 Balbirnie gets another catch at slip. Adair pokes the bat at the ball, gets a little edge and slip dives down low to his left to catch the ball. Holds it up in the air to show that he caught it cleanly. 201/5Extras18 (lb 3, nb 1, w 14)TOTAL286/6 (46.1 Overs, RR: 6.19)Fall of wickets: 1-128 (James McCollum, 19.6 ov), 2-139 (Morgan Topping, 22.4 ov), 3-169 (Cade Carmichael, 28.2 ov), 4-170 (Adam Leckey, 28.4 ov), 5-201 (Ross Adair, 34.3 ov), 6-222 (Neil Rock, 38.6 ov)
