    New deals for Bears pair

    Warwickshire all-rounder Steffan Piolet and paceman Tom Milnes have signed new contracts with the 2012 LV County Championship winners.

    Piolet, 24, joined the Bears ahead of the 2009 season and has agreed a two-year deal after becoming an important limited-overs player.

    Milnes, 20, is a product of the Warwickshire academy and has signed for three more years.

    He made his championship debut last summer away at Durham and was also part of the team that clinched the title against Worcestershire in September.

    Warwickshire assistant coach, Dougie Brown, said: "Both Steff and Tom are good athletes, great team men and as young players have excellent potential to play a key role in the team for many years to come."
