These two appearances bought him limited success, with 19 runs and behind the stumps a single catch and three stumpings.

After the war he made a further 94 Minor Counties Championship appearances for Oxfordshire, playing his final match against Berkshire in 1955.He died at Rugby, Warwickshire, on 18 March 1991.
