England’s star batsman Alastair Cook has signed a long-term extension to his contract with Gray-Nicolls.

Says Cook: "I am very happy to continue my relationship with Gray-Nicolls having used the brand since I started playing the game. Having the right equipment and working closely with their master bat-makers at Robertsbridge to make sure my bats are just right is very important to me. I am now looking forward to working with them on a number of new product ideas in other areas."

Says Richard Gray, sales and marketing director at Gray-Nicolls: "We are delighted that Alastair has decided to remain with the brand and we wish him every success over the coming months in the lead-up to the Ashes next summer. We are working closely with Alastair on some major new product developments and we look forward to announcing the first of a number of these in the near future."
