Ian Cooke (CricketEurope)
Game of the night was at The Rectory where in a dramatic finish, Glendermott beat Bready by 1 run. With two needed from two balls, Ian Cooke dismissed Swarnim Jha and in a further twist - his son Aaron - both caught by Ben Mills much to the delight of the home support. Mills had hit 6 sixes in a 39-ball 69, while there were runs too for Curtis Ross (39) and Craig Doherty (22). Nathan McCombe claimed four wickets, while there were two for skipper Ian Young. He led the chase with a top-score of 70 from 48 balls (8 fours, 4 sixes), while Gavin Roulston hit a breezy 32. Nathan McCombe's two late sixes looked to have won it for Bready, but the wily Cooke had the final say.
