Lewis Gregory: Somerset all-rounder signs two-year contract extension

Somerset all-rounder Lewis Gregory has signed a two-year contract extension.

The new deal sees the 31-year-old, who captains Somerset's Twenty20 side, commit to the club until 2025.

Gregory, who has won nine T20 and three ODI caps for England, has scored more than 6,000 runs and taken more than 550 wickets for the county and led them to the T20 Blast title this summer.

"I've spent my entire career here and I wouldn't want to be anywhere else," he told the club website.

"This is a special place with a special group of players, and what we achieved this summer was incredible.

"To win the Blast with this group was amazing. We've had a taste of success now and we definitely want more. I see no reason why we can't add more trophies to the cabinet in the next few years."

Somerset director of cricket Andy Hurry added: "Lewis is an outstanding cricketer, a proven performer across all formats and an exceptional tactician.

"His performances with the bat and the ball are consistently of the very highest order and his will to succeed and ability to positively influence games is an inspiration to those around him."
