Lester, who is spending his winter with North Sydney Cricket Club, impressed during the club’s T20 campaign this season, as Lancashire Lightning reached Vitality Blast Finals Day.

The left-arm seamer picked up 15 wickets at an average of just 22, including a career best 4-25 during the win over Derbyshire Falcons at Emirates Old Trafford in the Vitality Blast.

Lester said: “I am very pleased to have signed a new contract with the Red Rose.

“The club has shown great faith in me throughout my development and have been crucial to my progress as a cricketer. It is exciting to be part of this young and talented squad.

“To play a significant role in the run to Finals Day this year was brilliant for me and I hope to build on those experiences over the next couple of years.”
