Mitchell Claydon extends Durham stay

Durham County Cricket Club can confirm that Mitchell Claydon has signed a two year extension to his contract, committing him to the club until the end of 2014.

On signing his extension Mitchell Claydon said, “I love playing for Durham so I’m really pleased to have signed for another two years.  Winning the LV= County Championship was a career highlight and with the squad we have and the talent coming up through the ranks, we should be competing to challenge again in the coming seasons.  My bowling has really come on during my time here and although this season has been a tough one for the team our determination and commitment is as strong as ever and I’m proud to be a part of that.”

Head Coach Geoff Cook added, “Mitchell has become an integral part of our bowling attack and to have him on board for the next two years is great. His role has changed in the last season or so as he has had to take on more responsibility and it seems to be something he has really enjoyed.”
