Opening batsman Cameron Steel has signed a new two-year deal with Durham, tying him to the club until the end of 2019.

The California-born star hit his maiden first-class century against Northamptonshire in June and has featured in all three formats.

Durham head coach Jon Lewis said of Steel: "He's demonstrated real talent this year and contributed well in both the red and white-ball format.

"He's a good character to have in the dressing room and someone who has benefited greatly from a good run in the team this season."

Steel, who scored 37 against Lancashire on his NatWest T20 Blast debut on Sunday, also struck his maiden Royal London One-Day Cup fifty, against Nottinghamshire, earlier this term.
