Liam Patterson-White signs new three-year deal at Nottinghamshire

The 22-year-old bowling allrounder agrees to remain until 2024, fresh from his maiden first-class century against Somerset

Nottinghamshire have agreed to a new deal with promising allrounder Liam Patterson-White.

The 22-year-old has signed a fresh three-year contract running until 2024.

Patterson-White has made 17 first-class and eight List A outings since his senior debut in 2019.

Alongside being installed as Notts' front-line spinner, the Sunderland-native struck his maiden first-class century in the recent LV=Insurance County Championship win over Somerset at Taunton.

“It’s been a thrill to be part of some memorable victories this summer, and I’ll be giving it everything to try and make a further impact on the final few games of the year," he said. 

"We’re keeping our heads down, maintaining our focus and seeing how far it can take us. 

"Beyond that, it’s about aiming to forge a long and successful career, continuing to improve and striving to win as many matches as possible, whilst continuing to enjoy the experience of living my dream."

Head coach Peter Moores added: "The beauty of having a player like Liam as a frontline spinner who also performs as an accomplished batsman is that he balances our side. 

"He’s risen to the challenge of being our lead slow bowler in red-ball cricket, often in conditions not in his favour, and his century at Taunton showcased his batting capabilities at their finest.

"We’ve always known there’s no shortage of natural ability within Liam, and he’s also got a huge amount of self-belief which is important in professional sport."
