A talented fast bowler with genuine pace, Wes Agar has been highly talked about in the cricketing circles of Australia. His has been a fairy tale story thus far, despite having had an elder brother (Ashton Agar) who has already played for the country. During his teenage days in Victoria, Agar didn't quite have the pace or build for a quick bowler. He went through the age-group categories but wasn't quite in the reckoning. That's when the move to Adelaide happened. It was a gamble really, as he decided to work part-time to fund himself while also vigorously working on his physique. The result was a fitter and stronger Wes Agar who had upped his pace considerably. Agar had joined a grade side at Adelaide University and his talent impressed all those who saw him play. Consequently, he got the opportunity to represent Australia in the under-age competition conducted in Dubai before ultimately getting a call up for South Australia in the Sheffield Shield in 2016. He was then part of a training camp for the National Performance Squad that was held in Brisbane. After a season with South Australia, Agar made the move back to Victoria before back-tracking again to play for South Australia again in the 2019/20 season. He ended that year's Sheffield Shield as South Australia's highest wicket-taker with 33 scalps and set the record for the most wickets taken for South Australia in the Sheffield Shield. He debuted in the 2016-17 BBL season for Adelaide Strikers. His performances at the domestic level meant that he was handed an ODI debut in a series against Australia. More than capable with the bat, Agar showcased his talent by scoring a 36-ball 41 in his debut game. However, without any promising performances in his primary discipline, bowling, Agar was unable to retain his national spot. Hariprasad Sadanandan
