The Emerging Knights recovered from a poor start to beat the Emerging Warriors by 64 runs at The Lawn.

Isaac Bird was a man in a hurry as he thumped 7 sixes and 6 fours in a 37-ball 76, but once he was bowled by the excellent Harry Dyer (2-37) normality was restored. Wickets for Carson McCullough (3-45), Kian Hilton (2-22) and Evan Carlisle (2-27) ensured the Knights were always in control despite late bursts from Jared Wilson (41) and Ben Calitz (30).

Freddie Robinson (3-15) and Callum Lowe (2-8) proved the NCU match winners in a tense chase, while three run outs didn't help the NW side who battled well throughout.
