"Last season was unbelievable for us as a team and for me personally, and I'm delighted that I was able to contribute to our success.

"We all really want to build on that and the aim is that we can add more silverware in 2023."

Fuller was ever-present as Hampshire lifted their third T20 Blast title, topping the side's wicket-taking charts with 23 dismissals, including two wickets in the final, and scoring 290 runs at 32.22.

He also featured in all but one of Hampshire's County Championship matches, with his exploits earning him the players' player of the year award.

Giles White, Hampshire's director of cricket, said: "James adds 'X factor' and balance to our line-up and it was fantastic to see him deliver across the formats last summer."
