Nottinghamshire have extended the contract of young spinning allrounder Fateh Singh., who is now part of the professional ranks at Trent Bridge.

The academy product joined at the age of nine and has signed a two-year deal keeping him at the club until 2025, extending his association beyond a decade.  

Singh, 19. has impressed during his List A outings in the One-Day Cup, taking nine wickets. He produced encouraging performances in the Second XI Championship in 2023 too, averaging just under 36 with the bat.

Part of England's Under-19 World Cup squad in 2021, he is continuing his development this winter by playing Grade cricket in Melbourne and training with Victoria.

"This contract gives me the backing to kick on at Nottinghamshire, which is something I am really keen to do," he said.

"Ultimately, I've got an ambition to compete in every format for the club I’ve grown up representing, and I hope I can get closer to doing that over the course of the next two years. 

Head coach Peter Moores added: "Fateh is someone who has a great belief in his ability and that's a really valuable asset to go along with his natural talent.  

"He's got a high ceiling. With hard work, he can and will reach that potential, and that’s an exciting prospect for him and us."
