Last updated : 19 April 2013 By Covsupport News Service

Warwickshire County Cricket Club set Durham a target of 413 from 101 overs on the third day of their Country Championship game at Edgbaston.

Resuming on 6-0, Warwicks added sixteen before Ian Westwood was caught after making eleven runs. Forty runs were added when Will Porterfield, who had made 21 was caught by Mustard.

Two balls later and Varun Chopra who had made 24 was the third Warwicks player to be caught and again it was another catch for Mustard.

Laurie Evans added two and his dismissal saw Jim Troughton and Tim Ambrose at the crease. The pair had put on one hundred before Troughton was trapped lbw by Stokes.

Ambrose batted on to a superb 105 from 126 balls including 14 fours but he too was trapped lbw, this time by Thorp.

This left Warwicks on 273-6. Rikki Clarke played some good shots in an innings of 92 before being stumped by Mustard in a partnership of 74 with Chris Woakes who made an unbeaten 38.

Five runs after Clarke was out, Warwicks were all out for 351 when Jeetan Patal was caught by Onions off the bowling of Jennings for a single.

That set Durham 413 to win from 101 overs. In the second over, Chris Wright had Keaton Jennings trapped lbw first ball and Durham closed on 11-1.
