Essex fast bowler Sam Cook has signed a two-year contract extension with the county champions, tying him to Chelmsford until 2022.
Right-arm seamer Cook, 22, has taken 87 wickets in 29 matches since making his first-class debut with Essex in 2016.
He played in the last four games of the 2017 title-winning season and nine more when Essex regained that crown in 2019.
"Sam has become extremely reliable and consistent and is a vital part of our side," said head coach Anthony McGrath.
