Lancashire head coach Peter Moores signs one-season extension

Lancashire have announced that head coach Peter Moores has signed a one-season extension to his contract.

The former Sussex coach, who moved to Old Trafford in 2009 following a coaching stint with England, will now be tied to the outfit until the end of 2015.

"I am delighted to extend my contract with Lancashire at such an exciting time for the club," Moores told the club's official website.

"Not only have facilities at Emirates Old Trafford been developed to match the best in the sport, we have also developed a Squad that is very exciting with both emerging youngsters and committed senior players."

Moores helped guide the Red Rose to their first County Championship title for 77 years in 2011.
