Preview

In the 8th match of the Cricket Ireland Inter-Provincial T20 Trophy, Northern Knights will take on Leinster Lightning. This match will be played at the Bready Cricket Club in Bready. Northern Knights have won all their three matches in this tournament and are the only unbeaten side so far. In the previous match against North West Warriors they chased down a target of 164 with 4 overs to spare.  They will be looking to continue their good run. 

Leinster Lightning suffered a five-wicket defeat against Munster Reds in the previous match and have lost all three matches. They find themselves bottom of the table and need to make a turnaround quickly to stay alive in the competition. Although Leinster Lightning will be boosted by the return of the Ireland international players and that addition makes their squad really strong and they will be giving Northern Knights a good fight in this match.

8.5

Mark Donegan

LLG | BAT

Mark Donegan has failed to get a big score in the previous few matches and with a couple of better options ( Tucker and Rock) in the wicket-keeper section he can be left out.

6

Joe Carroll

LLG | BOWL

Joe Carroll just bowled the one over and went wicket-less in the previous match against Munster Reds. Hence avoid him for this match.
