He missed parts of the 1932 season through injury, Brian Sellers captaining in his stead, and resigned at the end of the season.
A right handed batsman, he scored 1,558 runs at 26.86 with his only century, 104*, coming against Glamorgan CCC.
He took 2 wickets with his occasional right arm medium pace, at a cost of 34.5.
