He was a wicket keeper and took two catches in his two matches, against the touring Australians and Kent. His batting was less than successful, with two runs in two completed innings. Yorkshire saved the match against the Australians, scoring 344 for 7 after being forced to follow on in the wake of George Bonner's hard hitting hundred.
