Northamptonshire wicketkeeper Lewis McManus has signed a two-year contract extension to run until the end of the 2027 season.
The 30-year-old has played 111 games for the club in all formats since joining them from Hampshire in 2022.
He has scored 2,436 runs and taken 169 catches and helped the Steelbacks make a five-out-of-five winning start to this summer's T20 Blast.
"There's a great feel about the club at the moment and we're playing some really good cricket across the formats," he said.
"I'm excited about where this group can go and looking forward to contributing to our success in the next few years."
McManus has 26 dismissals in the County Championship this summer, a total exceeded only by Gloucestershire's James Bracey in Division Two.
"He is getting better and better, he wants to continue to help us learn and be the best we can be and that's a big reason why we want to keep him," said head coach Darren Lehmann.
