Early life


Salt was born in Bodelwyddan, Wales. He began playing cricket in St Asaph and played for the North East Wales Under-11s.[3] He attended school in Chester[3] and when he was 10 years old, his family moved to Barbados. As a result, he met the Barbados residency requirement, and so was eligible to play for either England or the West Indies.[4] Whilst in Barbados he played with future Sussex and England colleague Jofra Archer.[5] Salt returned to the United Kingdom at the age of 15, when he attended the Reed's School on a cricket scholarship.[6][5]


Domestic career


In 2013, Salt played for Guildford Cricket Club,[7] before being signed to the Sussex Academy for the 2014 season.[8] Salt played Second XI matches as well as playing in the 2014 Sussex Cricket League Premier Division for a Sussex Cricket Board Development XI, and also Brighton & Hove.[9] In the Sussex Premier League, Salt scored 200* from 129 balls in a match against Horsham, as well as 147* against the Preston Nomads, and 51 from 33 balls against the league's eventual winners, Roffey. In August 2014, he was awarded the Player of the Month trophy.[10][11]

Salt was retained by Sussex for the 2015 season,[12] and scored 72 from 52 balls in a May 2015 Sussex Premier League match against Cuckfield Cricket Club.[13] He also represented Brighton and Hove, and top-scoring for them with 39 in a match against Middleton.[14] In June 2015, he scored 43 in a Sussex second XI match against Surrey, in a Sussex team including Mahela Jayawardene and Ashar Zaidi.[15] Salt made his List A debut in a 2015 Royal London One-Day Cup match against Essex; he was the 29th different player to play for Sussex in the 2015 Royal London One-Day Cup. Opening the batting, Salt scored 22 from 20 balls; the match was eventually a no result due to rain.[16][17]

Prior to the beginning of the 2016 season, Salt was awarded a junior professional contract.[18] He made his Twenty20 debut on 20 May 2016 for Sussex against Gloucestershire in the 2016 NatWest t20 Blast.[19] On 8 July 2016 he made his first-class debut for Sussex during Pakistan's tour of England.[20]

On 10 September 2019, Salt signed for Adelaide Strikers as one of their overseas players for the 2019–20 Big Bash League season.[21]

Salt missed the start of the 2021 County Championship season due to a broken foot.[22] Salt announced a move from Sussex to Lancashire CCC for the 2022 season.[23] In April 2022, he was bought by the Manchester Originals for the 2022 season of The Hundred.[24]


International career


In May 2019, Salt was added to England's Twenty20 International (T20I) squad for the one-off match against Pakistan, replacing an injured Dawid Malan, but did not play.[25]

In July 2021, having previously trained with the squad earlier in the summer,[26] Salt was named in England's ODI squad for their series against Pakistan,[27] after the original squad for the tour was forced to withdraw following positive tests for COVID-19.[28] Salt made his ODI debut on 8 July 2021, for England against Pakistan.[29] In December 2021, Salt was named in England's Twenty20 International (T20I) squad for their series against the West Indies.[30] He made his T20I debut on 26 January 2022, for England against the West Indies.[31]

In June 2022, in the opening match against the Netherlands, Salt scored his first century in ODI cricket, with 122 runs.[32] During the match, England scored 498 runs, the highest score in ODI and List-A history, with Salt being one of three centurions alongside Dawid Malan and Jos Buttler.[33]
