Gloucestershire pace bowler Matt Taylor has signed a new two-year contract.

The 30-year-old has committed himself until the end of the 2026 season having spent his entire career at the club.

He has taken a total of 419 wickets across all formats of the game during his 13-year career including 23 wickets in 13 T20 Blast matches this season.

"Matt has been in terrific form for us particularly in the Vitality Blast, impacting so many games but never taking that for granted," Gloucestershire head coach Mark Alleyne told the club website.

"Not only that, Matt is a real force of good in the changing room and we're all delighted to see him commit the next couple of years to Gloucestershire."
