A prolific batsman in Perth's first-grade competition, where he topped the run tally in 2009-10, Michael Swart was given his initial taste of state cricket late in the season. A mature batsman who debuted for Western Australia at 27, Swart made a duck in his maiden FR Cup game but made up for that with 83 in his first Sheffield Shield match. He also impressed with 57 on a difficult first-morning Gabba pitch and at the end of the season won a contract with Warriors.
