Homegrown all-rounder Lyndon James has signed a new contract with Nottinghamshire that commits him to the Club until the end of the 2027 season.<\/p>\n
Born in Worksop and a graduate of the Nottinghamshire Academy, 26-year-old James has played more than 100 matches for the Green and Golds since his debut in 2018.<\/p>\n
He has scored exactly 3,500 all-format runs for Notts in that time, as well as claiming 115 wickets with his right-arm seam.<\/p>\n
It is almost exactly three years to the day that he struck his maiden First-Class century, amassing 108 against Durham at the Riverside, and this week he posted the fifth of his career to help Notts to a season-opening win over the same opposition at Trent Bridge.<\/p>\n
James has a top score in First-Class cricket of 164 not out, coincidentally also against Durham, while he has struck six white-ball half-centuries.<\/p>\n
With the ball, he holds career-best First-Class figures of 6\/74, against Surrey in 2023, and also has a List A five-fer to his name, having picked up 5\/48 in a 2021 One Day Cup clash with Warwickshire.<\/p>\n
\u201cIt\u2019s an honour to extend my contract with Nottinghamshire, where I was born and where I\u2019ve developed both personally and professionally,\u201d said James.<\/p>\n
\u201cMaking my debut for my home county was among the proudest moments of my life, and, seven years on, I\u2019m beyond delighted to secure my future here as we continue to strive forward and target silverware.<\/p>\n
\u201cBeing able to call a world-class venue like Trent Bridge my home ground is such a privilege, and I can\u2019t wait to continue to give my all for this club, my teammates, and our members and supporters.\u201d<\/p>\n
