The disparity in the experience and quality of the squads resulted in a total mismatch that was over well before the scheduled close despite only 10 overs on the first day. Irish international Cade Carmichael top-scored with 146 from 142 balls (19 fours, 3 sixes) as he and Sam Topping put on an opening stand of 246, only ended by a run-out. Warriors opener Topping, back on home soil also made a century, hitting 14 boundaries in his unbeaten 107 as the Knights declared on 276 for 1. What followed was a slaughter of the innocents as Munster were completely dismantled twice in quick succession - their two innings lasting a total of 44 overs. Carson McCullough (4-6), Cian Robertson (3-5) and Tom Ford (3-5) did the damage with Munster bowled out for 46 in 27.3 overs. They did manage 71 in their second effort thanks to Zubair Hassan Khan's 26, but only lasted 16.3 overs. The CSNI duo of Harry Dyer (6-38) and James West (3-29) the destroyers-in-chief in the innings and 159-run win. In truth, this match was a waste of time, effort and money for all concerned.
