Bio

Jai Lemire is an exciting young wicketkeeper‑batsman from Carlton, Victoria, who has rapidly risen through the ranks to establish himself as one of Australia’s promising talents. In the 2024–25 Premier Cricket season he amassed 658 runs at an impressive average of 47, including a standout double century for Carlton, performances that earned him a rookie contract—and later a full state contract—with Victoria for the 2025–26 season.

His agile glovework, powerful right-handed batting, and composure under pressure caught the selectors’ attention, leading to his call‑up into the Victorian Men’s squad
