Sean Ervine agrees new Hampshire contract

Sean Ervine has agreed a new three-year contract to keep him at Hampshire for the foreseeable future.

The all-rounder has been a regular for the county since arriving in 2005 and he admits that the decision to sign a new deal was an easy one.

Ervine said: "This club is going places and it's an exciting and special time as you can see looking around the ground. "For me it was just a no-brainer; I love playing at this club. I love the changing room. It's been a very successful period for Hampshire Cricket over the last few years and I can see that continuing."

The 30-year-old's previous deal was due to expire at the end of this season.
