Barker was shortlisted alongside Derbyshire's Shan Masood, Kent's Ben Compton, and Yorkshire's Harry Brook.

The nominees are selected by the PCA's MVP, which is designed to identify the game's top performers. The MVP takes into consideration batting and bowling statistics as well as taking into account key match-defining contributions using a unique algorithm developed with CricViz - cricket's leading analytics experts.

The MVP will run throughout the 2022 campaign, and winners will be announced for each domestic competition, including an overall winner across multi formats.
