Meredith enjoyed a successful first spell in county cricket during the summer, his 14 wickets in the Blast helping defending champions Somerset reach Finals Day – although he was unable to play in the knockout stages after being called up by Australia. He also picked up six wickets in three One-Day Cup appearances.
“I really enjoyed my time with Somerset this year and I’m looking forward to coming back to England next summer,” Meredith said. “We played some good cricket, and it was nice to be able to play a part in some good wins. Hopefully, we can go on to lift some silverware in 2025.”
Somerset’s director of cricket, Andy Hurry, said. “We were all extremely impressed with how Riley performed on the field and by how he seamlessly he fitted into the group.
“He showed that he is a world-class performer, and he brought something a little different to our already outstanding attack. He bowled with genuine pace and aggression and will once again be a valuable addition to our squad next summer.”
