Seamer Toby Roland-Jones will continue to play for Middlesex until the end of the 2014 season after signing a contract extension

Seamer Toby Roland-Jones has signed a contract extension at Middlesex.

The 23-year-old joined Middlesex in 2009 after a string of fine performances in the second XI and will now stay at Lord’s until the end of the 2014 season.

Since then, Roland-Jones, who is part of the Potential England Performance Programme, has taken 68 wickets in 16 first-class matches at an average of 22 and has snared 21 scalps in 15 limited-overs appearances.

Middlesex managing director of cricket Angus Fraser said: “It is great for Middlesex CCC to have secured Toby’s services for at least the next three years.

"Like John Simpson, who signed a contract extension before Christmas, Toby is an extremely talented and hard-working player.

“These are the type of cricketers I want to build Middlesex’s future around. Hopefully he will be bowling for Middlesex for the next 10 years or more.

“Toby has come a long way in an extremely short space of time. This time two years ago there was a danger he may have slipped out of the game.

"He is now one of the most exciting young bowlers in the country; hence his involvement in this winter’s Potential England Performance Programme.

“Toby has and continues to benefit from working with Richard Johnson, Middlesex’s assistant coach, and there is still plenty of scope for him to become an even better bowler.

"With Steven Finn looking more like an international bowler every week, Toby is set to get the chance to secure a permanent place in our first team.”
