Champions Leinster Lightning finished on a winning note as they clinched a final over two-wicket win against Northern Knights.

Morgan Topping's 51 (4 fours, 4 sixes) included 25 off one Josh Little over as he and James McCollum (30) added 84 in seven overs, while Tom Mayes hit 46 in a total of 187 for 9 - four wickets for Gavin Hoey.

Chris De Freitas went first ball but a second wicket stand of 111 between the Tector brothers looked to be setting up a routine win.

However, once Tim went for 85 - taking his tournament tally to 507 - there were a few nerves, but David Delany made a vital 24, while Josh Little cleared long-on by some distance to seal the win with four balls to spare to ensure the champions finished on a high note after four weeks of almost total domination - eight of their ten wins coming with a bonus point.

In Tim Tector they had the outstanding batsman of the competition, while Barry McCarthy (16)  was the joint leading wicket taker along with Matthew Humphreys and Andy McBrine.

Leinster will be hoping to complete another double when the interpro 50 over competition resumes next month.
