In 1993, he played his final List A match against Yorkshire[5] before seven more matches for Ireland, including games against Barbados, Wales, the MCC and the Netherlands.[3] He represented Ireland at the 1994 ICC Trophy,[8] winning the man of the match award against Gibraltar,[9] which were his last matches for Ireland.[3]
