Josh Philippe — the full profile
Gloves first, bat second — that is the honest order of priorities for this role, even if the highlights favour the batting. In the PSL, keepers who can bat in the top four change the whole shape of a side.
The road here ran through a career built across domestic cricket at home and franchise stops abroad, the modern T20 professional's map, and it shows in the way the role is played: the workload is managed like a senior professional's, whatever the birth certificate says.
How Ashton Turner builds an innings decides where this player lands in the order of things: pace is held back for the death wherever possible.
