Kent fast bowler Nathan Gilchrist has signed a contract extension until the end of the 2025 season.

The 24-year-old has taken 126 wickets across all formats since making his debut for the county in 2020.

Gilchrist made 12 appearances for Kent as they were relegated from County Championship Division One this year, taking 19 wickets at an average of 42.68.

"I'm delighted to extend my Kent contract at a big time in both my career and for the club," he said.

"We didn't perform at our best in 2024 but 2025 is a fresh start and our core group is still young and talented - we want to get back to the top level as soon as we can."
