Durham batter Graham Clark has signed a new new two-year deal.

The 32-year-old has made 254 appearances for the county since making his debut in 2015.

He is enjoying an excellent season and scored back-to-back County Championship centuries against Hampshire and Nottinghamshire in May, with a career-best 160 against Hants.

“I’m absolutely delighted to be committing my future to the club, I’ve been here since I joined the academy 16 years ago and I couldn’t imagine playing my cricket anywhere else,” Clark told the club website., external

“I feel like I’m now entering the best years of my career, and I hope I can contribute to success in both the red ball and white ball teams.”
