Jason Gillespie has hailed the work ethic of Chris Jordan after the England star agreed a new Sussex deal.
Jordan, who is going into his seventh season at Hove, has signed a contract extension.
As is now standard policy, the length of his new deal has not been disclosed.
But Jordan’s existing commitment – signed in October, 2017 – already took him through until the end of the 2019 season.
He has been in sparkling Twenty20 form of late and will be a key man across the formats for the county this year.
Sussex coach Gillespie said: “It’s great to have CJ sign again with us. He has a brilliant work ethic when it comes to all aspects of his preparation for matches, coupled with his great skill.
“He’s an experienced player who sets a fine example around the group and who works well with all his teammates.”
Jordan, 30, said: “I’m very pleased. Ever since the minute I walked through the door here, everyone has always made me feel so welcome. It’s become home.
“I think I have developed very well as a cricketer here and I couldn’t see a better place to continue my development. This is a great club with great people.
“I’m looking forward to getting some silverware at some point during my time here. We came quite close last season, so hopefully we can build on our performances and go one better this year.”
