Thomas Rew: Somerset teenage prospect extends contract to 2028

Teenage wicketkeeper-batter Thomas Rew has signed a new contract with Somerset until the end of the 2028 season.

The 18-year-old penned his first professional deal with the county in July last year which was due to run until October 2027, after making his debut in the T20 Blast.

Rew and older brother James, 21 – who has established himself in Somerset’s first XI – are among England cricket’s brightest young talents.

He captained England’s Under-19s as they reached a World Cup final in February and also toured Australia with England Lions.

“Opportunities such as those with the England U19s and the England Lions have arrived pretty fast for me in the last 12 months and events have happened in my cricketing journey so far that I wasn’t necessarily expecting,” Rew said in a statement.

“I’m grateful to Somerset for all the opportunities they have given me so far. I just try to take one match at a time and not look too far ahead, an approach which really helped me last year.”
