Procter Signs New Northants Contract

Luke Procter has signed a new two-year contract with Northants, extending his professional career until he turns 40 years old.

Procter, who has an interesting background including training as an electrician, plumber, and hairdresser before focusing on cricket, is one of the few remaining players from Lancashire's 2011 Championship winning side still active. The all-rounder has been in good form this season.

County cricket continues with day four matches including Hampshire v Yorkshire and Somerset v Essex. Meanwhile, Australia has thrashed Bangladesh in their recent match. Procter's new contract will keep him with Northants until he reaches the age of 40. newsbetting.cv
