A slower ball yorker from Mitchell Claydon bowled Carter and from then the rate began to slow. Gareth Breese returned figures of two wickets for only 26 runs from his six overs.
Jim Troughton anchored the rest of the innings with an unbeaten 48 from only 47 deliveries. This allowed Rikki Clarke and Chris Woakes to attack from ball one as Warwickshire tried to up the rate at the end of the innings.
All rounder Ben Stokes and Mitchell Claydon snatched four late wickets to restrict Warwickshire to only 243.
Mark Stoneman struck a couple of early boundaries before Carter had him nick one to Rankin at first slip. Phil Mustard was then joined by Ben Harmison and the pair put on 114 for the second wicket before Woakes had Ben Harmison caught by Westwood.
Phil Mustard moved onto 90 off only 72 balls (10×4, 2×6) when he mistimed a chip through the leg side to be caught by Rankin. Ben Stokes made 11 before mistiming the spin of Botha to be caught at midwicket.
Gordon Muchall and Ian Blackwell then put on 65 runs before Blackwell going for another big hit was caught in the deep. Gordon Muchall and Kyle Coetzer ushered Durham over the finish line on 49 not out and 8 not out respectively with ten deliveries to spare.
