Robinson and Carter sign new Sussex contracts

Ollie Robinson has made 85 appearances in first-class cricket for Sussex since his debut in 2015

England bowler Ollie Robinson and wicket-keeper-batter Oli Carter have both signed two-year contract extensions with Sussex.

Sussex have made a strong start to the County Championship season, sitting third in the table after winning promotion to Division One last season.

Fast bowler Robinson, 31, has taken 369 wickets in 85 first-class matches at an average of 21.04 in red ball cricket since making his Sussex debut 10 years ago.

He has also earned 20 Test caps for England, playing in the 2023 home Ashes series, but has not represented the national team since February 2024.

Robinson has 18 wickets in five Division One matches so far this season.

"I'm really pleased to have signed a new contract with Sussex," he told the club's website.

"This club has played a massive role in my journey, and it's a place that means a great deal to me. I'm proud to continue representing the badge and contributing both on and off the field."

Oli Carter made his Sussex debut in 2019

Carter, 23, has made 63 appearances for Sussex across all formats since his debut in 2019.

He has scored 1,921 runs in 36 red ball matches at an average of 33.70.

"The club is going in such an exciting direction and I can't wait to win more games and hopefully more trophies with the club," Carter said.

"Hove is such a special place so I can't wait to keep making more memories here."
