In early December 2021, Wyllie was named in Australia's training squad of 37 players for the 2022 ICC Under-19 Cricket World Cup.[4] Later the same month, Wyllie was selected in Australia's final squad of fifteen players for the U19 Cricket World Cup.[5] Wyllie played in all six of Australia's matches, finishing the tournament as the team's leading run-scorer, with 278 runs.[6] In Australia's first group match, against the West Indies, Wyllie top-scored in the match with an unbeaten 86 runs.[7] In Australia's third match, against Scotland, Wyllie was again the top-scorer in the match, scoring 101 not out.[8] Following the conclusion of the tournament, the International Cricket Council (ICC) named Wyllie in their most valuable team of the tournament,[9] the only Australian in the squad.[10]

Wyllie made his first-class debut on 23 March 2022, for Western Australia in the penultimate match of the 2021–22 Sheffield Shield season, where he scored 42 runs in the first innings.[11] He became the youngest cricketer to make his first-class debut for Western Australia since Cameron Green made his debut in February 2017.[12] Western Australia made the final of the Sheffield Shield, with Wyllie playing in the match,[13] with Western Australia winning the tournament.[14]

On 4 October 2022, he scored his maiden century in first class cricket,[15] helping his team to defeat New South Wales by 8 wickets in the opening match of the 2022–23 Sheffield Shield season.[16]
