In his first-class match, against Somerset, he scored a single run in the first innings before being dismissed for a duck in his team's second innings of 37, one of five ducks in the innings. He took five catches in the match, including four in the first innings. In his second match, against Middlesex, he scored 2 and 0, being dismissed in the second innings by Frank Tarrant, who took 9/41. He took three catches in the match.
