The ECB today announced that Sussex all-rounder Chris Jordan and Nottinghamshire batsman Michael Lumb have been awarded England increment contracts for 2013-14.
Jordan qualifies for the award by virtue of having played five ODIs and a T20 against Australia, one ODI and a T20 against West Indies and two T20s during the ICC World T20 since the contract period began on October 1.
Lumb qualifies for the award by virtue of having played two T20s against Australia, three ODIs and three T20s against West Indies and two T20s at the ICC World T20 during the contract period.
Non-contracted players can earn an England increment contract via a points system. Five points are awarded for a Test appearance and two for a T20 or ODI appearance, with an increment contract being awarded automatically once the player reaches 20 points during the 12-month contract period.
