He's been awarded a 2 year central contract. Congratulations to him, hopefully he'll be allowed to play some cricket during that time.

Perhaps not a lot - he's not in the 12 for the first Test. I notice, though, that he's signed up for the IPL again. I'm really not sure this is good for his development.

Nice work if you can get it:
