He played one first-class cricket match for the Marylebone Cricket Club (MCC) against the Surrey Club at Lord's in 1873.[1] He batted in both the MCC's innings', scoring 11 runs in their first-innings, before being dismissed by James Southerton; in their second-innings he was dismissed without scoring by Fred Grace.[2]
