Tribe has had a meteoric rise over the past year or two.
Having made his Jersey debut as a teenager, he signed for Glamorgan on a rookie contract in 2023 while playing university cricket in Cardiff.
He has gone on to establish himself as one of the finest young players in the county game, with his explosive batting helping Glamorgan win promotion to Division One of the County Championship.
He scored a maiden double century for his county in September during a run of four centuries in six games for the Welsh side and Jersey in the ICC Challenge League.
It saw him earn a place with Paarl Royals in the South African T20 competition as well as England Lions.
Despite having played for Jersey at international level, England could call him up to their side as he has fulfilled the residency criteria – full members of the ICC can select players from associate member sides such as Jersey, although a call-up would mean he could no longer play for his homeland.
He says he found it nerve-wracking watching the auction and trying to work out if he would be picked: “It was tense seeing the wallet of a lot of the teams drop significantly after a few names had come out, which obviously was expected, but I hadn’t really computed that in my head.
“When I found out where my name was going to be coming out, it then started to relax me a little bit; I knew there’d still be a bit of money left in to hopefully get a few bids.
“I was lucky enough to be in Welsh Fire in the sense that I’m playing here, I’ll have a good understanding of how the wickets are going to play, and it’s obviously going to be the home ground that I’m playing at for Glamorgan, so it’s nice to still be in Cardiff for sure.”
