Head coach Matthew Mott has extended his contract with Australia's women's side.

Mott, who was initially appointed in 2015 before signing a new deal in 2017, was due to see his current terms expire this year.

However, he will now stay on until at least the end of the 2021 50-over World Cup in New Zealand.

Mott has overseen a period during which Australia have become a dominant force in the women's game - his side are on a remarkable 18-match winning streak in one-day internationals and have lost just three T20Is over the past two years.

"Coaching this group has been one of the most rewarding experiences of my life and I’m delighted to have been given the opportunity to continue in the role," Mott said.

"This is a special time to be involved in women’s cricket in Australia with a successful stand-alone WBBL flowing into a home Twenty20 World Cup. 

"I am excited to see how far this group can go and inspire the next generation of Australian cricketers."
