Leg-spinning all-rounder Chris Schofield has signed a new two-year contract extension with Surrey.
The 30-year-old former Lancashire man has rebuilt his career since heading to The Oval around three years ago, being a member of the England squad for the inaugural ICC World Twenty20 in 2007.
Professional cricket manager Chris Adams told the county's official website: "I have been delighted with Chris' attitude and eagerness to improve his game, whilst still making sure that he is competitive in all forms of cricket.
"He is a valuable member of our squad and we are very pleased he has agreed to this extension."
Schofield himself added: "Signing on for another two years at Surrey gives me immense pleasure.
"I would like to thank Chris Adams and Gus Mackay for showing their faith in me, which I hope to repay in coming times."
