Allen's first ball is whipped through the cover by Greg Ford, all the fielders had been brought in from the deep and that's the win for the Reds

Full commentary
We might have had a long time to wait to see some cricket, although it was definitely worth the wait! That was a terrific batting display for the Munster Reds.
Gareth Delany set the tone at the top of the Innings with a blistering 60 off only 35 balls on his return back from injury. A sight that Ireland fans will be glad to see.
Delany found a willing partner from Matt Ford, who took over the big hitting once Delany fell and marshalling the side home to a very impressive victory. A bonus point win and a huge dent into the Warriors run rate.
The Warriors bowling attack never had any answers to the Reds batters, showing once again how they missed Craig Young. None of the bowlers escaped punishment and it's only right that Matt Ford has just been named the Player of the Match.
Bottom beat top, showing once again how competitive this IP20 tournament has been. It's also set up a fasinating final day tomorrow.
Let's hope that the weather plays ball tomorrow. I'll be back at the ground from 9:45am to bring you all the action on the final day of the season. Until then, this is Justin Smyth saying goodbye from Comber.
