England stumper-batsman Steve Davies has signed a contract extension with Somerset County Cricket Club.
After the deal, the 34-year-old will remain with the club until at least the end of the 2022 season.
“My time at Somerset so far has been extremely special and I’m really pleased to have extended my stay. The last few years have shown that we could really be on the threshold of something very special and I can’t wait to play a part in that,” Davies said in a statement.
“We have a great squad of players and everyone is pushing to get better every day. The atmosphere in the camp is outstanding and hopefully we can push on to even bigger things in the next few years,” he added.
Commenting on the development, Somerset head coach Jason Kerr said: “Steve has been the consummate professional since joining us and he has been exceptional in every respect. His high skill levels and calm assured approach both with the gloves and the bat have been very important factors for us in the last few years and we’re really pleased that he has extended.”
Notably, Davies has featured in eight ODIs and five T20Is for England and has amassed 13,417 runs in first class cricket.
