On Sunday at Bready the North West Warriors, Leinster Lightnings and the Northern Knights will be playing in the T-20 competition with the first of the games starting at 11am.

Coleraine v Eglinton

The Bannsiders are having a disastrous season. Out of all the cup competitions and with only two wins in the league, they are playing with a lack of self-belief and their bowling and fielding has been very ordinary.

Eglinton had two very important wins last weekend which has moved them into fourth in the table. Stuart Thompson’s return to form has been a big help. The Bannsiders badly need to return to some kind of form.

Prediction: Coleraine

Fox Lodge v Strabane

Bottom verses top, the Foxies can’t get a win from anywhere and they are now four points adrift at the bottom. Too many of their players have not been performing and they seem to be losing interest.

The Red Caps have opened up a two-point lead at the top they can go all out for the title as they have no other distractions and have a solid all-round side.

Prediction: Strabane

Ardmore v Donemana

The Bleachgreen men, with two victories so far, are still involved in a battle at the bottom. Decker Curry has been in great form but after number five in the order there is nobody scoring runs which is a big worry.

Donemana, like their opponents, have won only two league games although in recent games they have shown their true worth. With the Senior Cup final just two weeks away they will want to continue their good form.

Prediction: Donemana

Brigade v Bready

Gareth McKeegan’s side are just two points behind Strabane having lost just once. They are playing with great confidence and seem to have unearthed a good young player in David Murdock.

Two defeats in two days has seriously damaged David Scanlon’s side. They didn’t seem up for it in those two games and the skipper no doubt will be addressing that. Another defeat would be a body blow.

Prediction: Brigade
