Hall made 106 from 132 balls, striking 14 fours and two sixes, and added 82 with Josh van Heerden. Bready then collapsed from 195 for 2 to 207 for 9 before McCombe’s 23 and Travis Faulkner’s unbeaten 17 lifted them to 246. Ryan Gallagher took 5 for 30. McCombe then tore through Strabane with 7 for 41, while David Scanlon claimed 2 for 15, as the visitors were dismissed for just 62.

Strabane's North West Premiership clash with Newbuildings fell victim to the weather after the home side had reached 106 for 2 in 23.1 overs. Rhys Logue top-scored with 38, while Conor Graham added 33 as Strabane made a steady start before torrential rain forced the abandonment of the contest.

St Johnston claimed their first win of the season and climbed above Bready in the table with a six-wicket victory over Strabane. The hosts looked well placed at 155-2 thanks to a superb third-wicket stand of 146 between Rhys Logue and Ryan Gallagher. Logue struck 74 with seven fours, while Gallagher made 65, including six boundaries. However, a dramatic collapse saw Strabane lose their last eight wickets for just 26 runs, finishing on 181. Nathan Cole starred with the ball, taking 4-19, while Graeme McCarter claimed 3-24. St Johnston’s reply was led by Michael Rankin’s unbeaten 57, with valuable contributions from Jack Macbeth (35) and Conor Olphert (27).

Strabane maintained their place at the top of the table with a dramatic 18-run victory over defending champions Brigade, securing their fourth league win of the season. After being asked to bat, Strabane posted 197 in 46.2 overs. Rhys Logue (30) and Aaron Gillespie (24) shared a useful second-wicket stand of 50 before overseas professional Mohammed Mohsin dominated a fourth-wicket partnership with Ryan Gallagher (17). Mohsin struck an aggressive 70 from just 60 balls, including five fours and five sixes. Scott Macbeth returned impressive figures of 4-32 for Brigade. The chase appeared under control at 165-4, with Adam McDaid (40), Macbeth (34) and David Barr (27) all contributing.

Strabane tightened their grip at the top of the Premiership table with a convincing nine-wicket victory over Fox Lodge in the Tyrone derby at Ballymagorry. The home side, missing holidaying skipper Johnny Robinson who is currently in Greece, were bowled out for just 113 in 31.3 overs after Strabane’s disciplined attack kept the pressure on throughout. Fox Lodge struggled to build partnerships, although Travis Nicholl provided some resistance with a counter-attacking 37. Nicholl cleared the ropes four times in an entertaining knock that briefly threatened to shift momentum, but he received little support from the rest of the batting line-up. Muhammad Mohsin led the Strabane bowling effort with impressive figures of 3-17, while Ryan Gallagher also struck key blows with 3-23. Vadivel Murthy chipped in with 2-49 as the visitors maintained control from start to finish. Strabane’s reply suffered an early setback when skipper Kevin Gallagher departed for a single, giving Fox Lodge a glimmer of hope. However, that was as good as it got for the hosts as Rhys Logue and Aaron Gillespie took command with a superb unbroken century partnership for the second wicket. Logue finished unbeaten on 57, striking three fours and four sixes in an aggressive innings, while Gillespie played the perfect supporting role with 42 not out from an innings containing six boundaries and a six. Their stand guided Strabane to 114-1 in just 23.1 overs and secured a maximum points win that keeps them firmly on top of the table.

Strabane produced the shock result of the season as they stunned fancied Donemana by 34 runs in a dramatic DLS success that sent the Red Caps soaring to the top of the table alongside fellow Tyrone side Fox Lodge. The hosts were dismissed for just 137 in 42 overs, but the total proved more than enough on a difficult surface. Young Zimbabwean leg-spinner Luke Marrillier was the chief destroyer for Donemana, ripping through the innings with outstanding figures of 5-29. Despite regular wickets, Strabane dug in through Allen Patterson, whose resilient unbeaten 31 anchored the innings, while overseas professional Muhammad Mohsin contributed 24 valuable runs in the middle order. Awais Zafar chipped in with 2-22 to keep the pressure on the home side. Donemana would have expected to chase the modest target comfortably, but Strabane’s bowlers produced a sensational display full of discipline and intensity. The visitors never settled as wickets tumbled steadily throughout the reply. Vadivel Moorthy was the star with the ball, claiming a magnificent 5-32, while Mohsin completed a superb all-round performance by taking 4-14 to rip the heart out of the Donemana batting line-up. Only Zafar, with 23, offered meaningful resistance as Donemana were bowled out for 101 in 34.3 overs, sealing a famous Strabane victory.

Coleraine eased to victory in a rain-affected clash after South African professional Louren Steenkamp produced a superb unbeaten century to guide the Bannsiders home. Reduced to 36 overs per side, Strabane posted 176 with several batters making starts but none able to push on. Rhys Logue and Aaron Gillespie added 51 for the second wicket, scoring 38 and 31 respectively, before overseas player Mohammed Mohsin injected late momentum with a quickfire 43 from just 33 deliveries, clearing the ropes four times. Coleraine’s bowlers shared the workload impressively, with Gareth Burns, Scott Campbell, Matthew Smyth and Steenkamp all taking two wickets each. Set a revised target of 201, the hosts recovered from two early blows by Andrew Mullen to take control through Steenkamp. He blasted an unbeaten 101 from only 69 balls, striking six fours and seven sixes in a dominant innings. He shared an 80-run stand with Varun Chopra, back from the NCU, before adding an unbroken 66 with Matty Smyth as Coleraine sealed an emphatic win.

Aaron Gillespie's brilliant hundred steered Strabane to an emphatic seven wickets win at Bready in the only game to go ahead in the Premiership. He hit 9 fours and eight sixes in his unbeaten 120, sharing a match winning second wicket partnership of 183 in 28 overs with Rhys Logue who proved the perfect foil. Logue's fine 70 included seven fours and one maximum. David Rankin took two wickets to get Bready a bonus point but it was scant consolation on a dominant Strabane display. Earlier, wickets for Mohammed Mohsin (3-50), Manav Aggarwal (2-25) and Vadivel Moorthy (2-35) reduced the hosts to 122 for 7, but David Scanlon, not for the first time, rallied the tail as he thumped five sixes in an unbeaten 44-ball 59, putting on 106 in the last 14 overs with Charlie Downey (27) and Nathan McCombe (19*). A final total of 228 for 8 looked competitive - but it wasn't.
