His hard work and passion for cricket resulted in his selection to the South Western Districts’ ‘Under-19' team. He was selected as batsman and left-arm fast bowler. He played against some of the top teams from other provinces. Joshua was very hopeful to get selected in the 'National Under-19' team. Unfortunately, he couldn’t make it to the team.
Joshua moved to the United Kingdom and played with 'Burslem Cricket Club,' Stoke-on-Trent. He played under the club for the next six months. He was happy and satisfied to play the game again. He was also getting paid for the matches. His best friend, Caspar, was also residing there, and they used to spend a lot of time together discussing their respective career plans. After six months, Joshua returned to Cape Town where he continued playing cricket. He also offered cricket coaching to kids and simultaneously worked at a restaurant to support his finances.
In 2015, he moved to London to give his cricket career a boost. His plan was to join a cricket club to get more exposure. But to his disappointment, nothing of that sort happened and after around a month, his health deteriorated. His dreams shattered when the doctor diagnosed 'Glandular Fever' and asked him to take complete rest. On the brighter side, this adverse situation opened a new avenue for Joshua.

It was a tennis match that Joshua lost to Caspar. He did not like Caspar much after the first meeting. A few days later, Josh again met Caspar in the school. The awkwardness developed after the first meeting vanished soon and they became best of friends.
