Batsman Sam Robson has extended his stay with Middlesex.

The former England international has put pen to paper on a long-term deal which will see him stay with the club until at least the end of the 2022 season.

Robson has made more than 9,000 runs for Middlesex across all formats since making his debut for the county in 2008.

"I’m looking forward to continuing to work with Angus Fraser, Stuart Law and the rest of the staff here at the club. With the signing of Peter Handscomb, who I know to be an excellent player, person and team-man, this will now hopefully be the beginning of a successful few years for the club," he said.

"I still have strong ambitions to play Test cricket again for England, and Middlesex and Lord’s is the place I want to try and make that happen, as I’ve always loved playing at this great, famous club."

Head coach Stuart Law said: "It’s great to have Sam with us for the next three seasons. A Test player with plenty of experience, still with a lot to give, Sam is a great leader within the group.

"I’m really looking forward to watching Sam continue to be a rock at the top of our order in both red and white-ball cricket."
