An Ish Sodhi double-strike looked to have halted the momentum a touch with the scores at 103/3 in the 11th, but Tom Bruce and Kieran Noema-Barnett had added 75 in 35 balls when Anton Devcich dismissed the former for 38.

A further 43 runs were added in 23 balls as the Central Stags posted 221/5.

It was always going to be a tough chase and with wickets falling at regular intervals, the chase became even tougher.

Anton Devcich top-scored for the Knights with 35 as they were dismissed for 101, giving the Central Stags victory by 120 runs.
