Leicestershire all-rounder Tom Scriven has signed a contract extension with the club until the end of the 2027 season.

He has taken 142 wickets in 87 games across all formats and has made nine first-class fifties, with a highest score of 99 against Kent at Canterbury last summer.

Scriven also took five wickets in an innings for the first time against Lancashire as the Foxes were promoted back to Division One of the Championship.

"Last season was a special one for me personally but I'm focused on contributing even more to the team and helping us push forward over the next few years," the 27-year-old said.
