Joining the seam pair in committing himself to the Riverside county is fellow bowler Mark Davies.

Onions has signed until 2011, Plunkett until 2010 and Davies until the end of next season.

A product of the Durham Academy and a member of the England Performance Programme squad that toured India early this year, 25-year-old Onions has played only three LV County Championship games this season due to a troublesome heel injury.

Durham secured Onions' signature despite the attention of several rival teams, and head coach Geoff Cook said: "We are really pleased that Graham has chosen to stay with us, especially after a lot of interest from other counties.

"He is one of the most promising young bowlers in the country and I'm sure he will continue to be a great asset to our team.

"To be able to boast an effective bowling attack made up of local lads, which include Liam Plunkett and Mark Davies, reflects well on the area."

Onions added: "I'm delighted to be staying at Durham. I love playing for the club and the decision to stay was an easy one to make."
