Asa Tribe, one of the brightest young prospects in English cricket, recently put pen to paper on an enhanced contract with Glamorgan. This agreement guarantees his job at the club for the next three years. Tribe produced an excellent performance to make an impression as Glamorgan’s new senior debutant of 2024. He soon emerged as a leading figure, making considerable contributions to the team’s success, including their One Day Cup win that year.
In 2024, Tribe showcased his potential by scoring two half-centuries in the County Championship. His dominating performance left no doubt that he had secured his spot in the squad. In 2025, he hit his peak, anointing himself with a star-studded career year. The fast bowler Tribe was instrumental in Glamorgan’s County Championship Division Two winners’ success. On the flip side, he had some flashy outings for Jersey in 2022.
After Tribe hit a rough patch at the start of the ongoing season. Though he wasn’t picked to start any of those first three Championship games, he showed tremendous resolve. He eventually played his way back into the first team after posting some extraordinary high scores in the seconds. It’s his fierce determination and skill that are most dazzling.
Tribe’s outstanding form did not go unnoticed. He was picked up by the Paarl Royals in the Betway SA20 auction in September 2025. As the double Olympic gold medalists will be known by then, he’ll be representing them in January and February of 2026. He received recognition on the international stage, being selected for the England Lions tour of Australia alongside his Glamorgan teammate Ben Kellaway.
On the night of performance, Tribe performed beautifully. His maiden double century came against Northamptonshire, in which he scored an unobstructed 206 not out. This extraordinary innings would only increase the already feverish hype at his becoming one of the most exciting young players in the country.
Glamorgan’s director of cricket Mark Wallace said he was pleased to have Tribe sign up for the long haul with the South Wales side.

“The club has supported me since I joined in 2023, and I want to reward that with my contributions on the pitch.” – Asa Tribe
