Attending Pearson High School, Josh is not only an exceptional student, he is a high class hockey player and cricketer to boot.

Described by his coaches as coachable and hard working, Josh is one of the schools hardest trainers and is committed to constantly improving his game.

In summer 2021, Josh headed to the UK for his first summer, linking with Sonning CC in the Thames Valley Cricket League. A mixed year of weather, form and call offs, Josh managed to gather 43 wickets @ 14.19 across all competitions to go with 392 runs @ 23.06, an impressive first up return.

Seeking to return to the UK next Summer, Josh holds a UK passport and will be a popular choice for clubs seeking a young, strike, leg-spinner that can contribute to the lower order next season.
