In five first-class matches for Sussex, he took 8 wickets at an average of 50.62, with best figures of 4/37.[4] In his only season with Sussex, he did feature more in limited overs cricket, making fifteen List A appearances, the last of which came against Hampshire in the 1992 Sunday League.[1] In his limited overs appearances for Sussex, he took a total of 12 wickets at an average of 36.08, with best figures of 2/14.[3]
