He played extensively in the Second XI championship between 1992, where he debuted for Gloucestershire in August but failed to make too much of an impression, finishing the match with a mere single run to his credit. Thereon, he played regularly from 1999 onwards. Though he spent season 2002 out of the game, he played first-class cricket for five years, scoring decently throughout, and finishing with a workable average of 14.
