He made his debut in 2017 and since then has scored 3,696 first-class runs in 81 appearances.

“I’m absolutely delighted to have signed a contract extension with the club,” Holden said., external

“Middlesex has been my home for 15 years ever since I walked through the doors of the academy aged 12.

“I’m so proud to represent this club, I have huge amount of drive and ambition to bring success and silverware to Middlesex over the next few years.”
