A bustling young fast bowler, Sonny Baker's hooping inswingers earned him opportunities with England Under-19s in 2021 before injury ruled him out of the World Cup early the following year. He had long been earmarked as a player with high potential, and in 2022 became the first man to make his professional T20 debut in the Hundred, representing Southern Brave.

He also took a six-wicket haul for Somerset in the 2022 Royal London Cup, and will win further opportunities in years to come. Cricket was not always the obvious choice for him: "I tried cricket because I was terrible at other sports," he has said.
