Warwickshire 256 for 5 (Hain 84*, Banks 61, Anderson 3-21) beat Lancashire 277 for 7 (Vilas 83, Thomson 3-27) by five wickets (DLS method)

Lancashire missed out on a chance to secure qualification from the Royal London Cup group stage following a five-wicket Duckworth-Lewis-Stern defeat to Warwickshire. The Red Rose, having finished their campaign, need other results to go their way on Monday after the home side chased down a DLS target of 255 in 45 overs with two balls to spare.

Lancashire amassed 277 for 7 thanks to skipper Dane Vilas's 83 from 79 ball, supported by a series of small contributions. Alex Thomson continued his fine tournament with List A-best figures of 10-1-27-3, including a burst of three wickets in 12 balls.

The home side then recovered from a superb opening spell of 8-2-15-3 from James Anderson to time their pursuit to perfection to the delight of a bumper Community Fun Day crowd at Edgbaston. Liam Banks struck 61 before Sam Hain saw the job through with consummate skill, his unbeaten 84, raising further his remarkable List A career-average of 58.

Put in, Lancashire lost Haseeb Hameed to the eighth ball of the innings, lbw to an Olly Hannon-Dalby inswinger. But after a slow start, just six runs from the first five overs, they accelerated through a succession of solid partnerships.

Keaton Jennings and Steven Croft added 56 in 12 overs and, after Jennings was bowled by Jeetan Patel, Croft and Vilas added 40 in seven before Croft played on to George Panayi.

Vilas and Jake Lehmann kept the scoreboard ticking over with 80 in 15 overs but Thomson applied a brake with two wickets in three balls. Lehmann drove to mid-off and Rob Jones reverse-swept his second ball to gully. When Vilas missed a cut at Thomson and was bowled, Lancashire were 192 for 6 and in danger of coming in short, but Josh Bohannon and Saqib Mahmood added 83 in 12 overs to get the total up around par.

Warwickshire's reply started briskly but was pegged back by a high-class spell from Anderson. He bowled Dominic Sibley off an inside edge then produced perfect offcutters to force fatal edges to wicketkeeper Vilas from Ed Pollock and Will Rhodes.

Hain and Banks retrenched with a stand, twice interrupted by rain, of 111 in 22 overs. They posted their half-centuries from successive deliveries, from 73 and 59 balls respectively, Hain achieving the unusual feat of reaching 50 without hitting a four.

After another rain break altered the target again, Warwickshire resumed needing 96 from 11 overs and soon lost Banks who lifted Graham Onions to deep extra cover. But Hain, now batting with a runner after hurting a knee scrambling for a single, added 40 in five overs with Woakes and then Alex Mellor arrived to inject the required impetus with two sixes in a Matt Parkinson over.
