An exciting left-arm fast bowler, Josh burst onto the scene with his four-wicket haul against England on ODI debut in 2019 and made history as Ireland’s first player to get picked up in the IPL draft for Gujarat Titans in 2023.
Ireland’s ‘X-factor’ with the ball, Josh has seen his star rise ever since he first played for his country in 2016. The left-armer has played all around the world and is a vital part of Ireland’s seam attack. His extra pace and ability to swing the ball make him Ireland’s most destructive bowler.
Josh’s two sisters, Louise and Hannah, are also Irish internationals.
