London: Somerset captain Marcus Trescothick has signed a new three-year contract, with the option of an extra year.
The former England opener, 33, was the highest-scoring batsman in first-class cricket last summer, hitting 1,817 runs at an average of 75.7.
He helped Somerset finish third in the County Championship and reach the final of the Twenty20 Cup.
Trescothick first played for the county when he was 17 and will now remain at Taunton until at least 2012.
Trescothick, 34, has been prolific for Somerset since his debut in 1993, topping the Championship run charts in 2008 with 1817 runs, including eight centuries, at an average of 75.70. He had 318 runs from eight games In the Pro40, 476 runs at 59.50 in the 50-over Friends Provident Trophy and 323 runs in the Twenty20 Cup.
Trescothick announced his retirement from international cricket in 2008 following a battle with a stress-related illness that kept him out of England's tours since 2006. It did not, however, affect his batting for Somerset.
