Yorkshire captain Anthony McGrath has signed a new three-year contract taking him through until September 2011.
McGrath was the White Rose county's leading run scorer in Twenty20 cricket last year, scoring 400 runs and will captain the first XI this season in his benefit year.
The 33-year-old said: "I'm delighted to stay at the Club for the next three years. I have enjoyed a fantastic career here so far and I think the next three years will be an exciting time for the club and for me, especially in my new role as captain."
Yorkshire chief executive Stewart Regan said: "It's great news that one of our most senior players and our captain has chosen to commit himself to the club for another three years.
"Under Anthony's leadership I'm confident that 2009 will be a successful year for the team and Yorkshire County Cricket Club."
