All-rounders Liam Patterson-White and Lyndon James have signed a new three-year contracts with Nottinghamshire until the end of 2024.

Patterson-White, 22, has progressed through the club's academy and made his first-team debut in 2019.

He scored his maiden first-class century in the victory over Somerset in the County Championship this week.

James, also 22, has been a regular in the Championship side in 2021, scoring 446 runs and taking 14 wickets.

"We've got a strong core of quality young players in the squad right now, with a healthy sprinkling of experience as well, and I can't wait to see what we can all pull together and achieve," he said.

Patterson-White has so far passed 50 four times for Notts with the bat and has taken 50 wickets in all formats.

"Having been in the Nottinghamshire system since I was a boy, it means so much to me that I'm now representing my county in first-team cricket and contributing to winning performances,"

Nottinghamshire head coach Peter Moores added: "The beauty of having a player like Liam as a frontline spinner who also performs as an accomplished batsman is that he balances our side.

"Lyndon has great all-round qualities as a cricketer, has demonstrated a sound temperament for professional cricket and shown real leadership qualities as well,"
