For the second time in two days Fox Lodge were involved in a last ball thriller, but this time came out on the wrong side of the result.

Andy Britton had struck the winning boundary on Sunday, but with 5 needed for a win, Mark Mooney managed just a single as Limavady won by 3 runs.

Needing ten from the last over, Stuart Thompson restricted Mooney and Dean McCarter to just six singles, as Fox Lodge made 142 for 4 in pursuit of Limavady's 145 for 7.

The turning point was the brilliant leg side stumping off a wide by Adnan Akmal which got rid of the dangerous Johnny Robinson for 37. Brian Allen had top scored with 42 as Fox Lodge looked always in control before faltering in the final few overs.

Thomas Riddles (39) and Mark McDaid (38) had opened for Limavady and got them off to a flying start, reaching 98 for 1, before the introduction of Andy Britton (3-16) and Darryl Brown (3-23) slowed the run-rate considerably.

Limavady now have 18 points from 11 games, the same as Donemana, while Brigade have 16 points from 11, and Strabane 16 from 12.

Brigade travel to Glendermott tonight in a game brought forward from August 7 when Brigade are playing Waringstown in the semi final of the Bob Kerr Irish Senior Cup.

Meanwhile in Senior Two, Ardmore have the chance to join Creevedonnell at the summit of Senior Two when they finish their game with Drummond tonight.

Paul Brolly top scored with a patient 65 as they scored 209 for 7 in their 40 overs. Mark Chambers (32) and Conor Brolly (28) were the other scorers of note.

Drummond will have only 39 overs to get the runs after being penalised one over as a consequence of their slow over rate.
