Cooper made his first-class debut for Gloucestershire against Yorkshire in the 1975 County Championship. He made sixteen further first-class appearances for the county, the last of which came against Worcestershire in the 1978 County Championship.[1] In his seventeen first-class matches for the county, he scored 561 runs at an average of 18.80, with a high score of 106.[2] His only century came against Oxford University in 1976.[3] He made his List A debut for the county against Essex in the 1975 John Player League. He made four further List A appearances for Gloucestershire, the last of which came against Minor Counties West.[4] He struggled in limited-overs matches for the county, scoring just 27 runs at an average of 5.40, with a high score of 12.[5]

In 1979 he undertook studies at the University of Cambridge, while there he played first-class cricket for Cambridge University Cricket Club, making his debut against Leicestershire. He made six further first-class appearances for the university in that season, the last of which came against Oxford University.[1] In his seven first-class appearances for the university, he scored 264 runs at an average of 37.71, with a high score of 54.[2] He also took 6 wickets for the university, which came at a bowling average of 36.00, with best figures of 2/11.[6] He also played List A cricket for the Combined Universities in the 1979 Benson & Hedges Cup, making four appearances.[4] Again he struggled in the limited-overs format, scoring 58 runs at an average of 14.50, with a high score of 37.[5] He did though take his only wickets in that format for the Combined Universities.[7]
