Vitality Blast finalists Surrey have secured the services of Gus Atkinson, Dan Moriarty and James Taylor after the trio all signed new contracts.

While allrounder Atkinson has penned a fresh 12-month deal, Moriarty and Taylor have agreed on terms until 2022.

All three players played a role in Surrey's Bob Willis Trophy and T20 campaigns last year.

They each made their senior debuts for the club last term, Taylor's coming after his move from Derbyshire.

MCC Young Cricketers graduate Moriarty made perhaps the biggest impact, taking 34 wickets via his left-arm spin across both competitions.

Director of cricket Alex Stewart said: "I’m very pleased these three young players have all extended their contracts with Surrey.

"All three have made nice progress and it was good to see them make their Surrey debuts in both first-class and T20 matches last season. I’m now looking forward to seeing them develop even more over the next two seasons."
