He was known for his unique bent finger grip, with which he briefly perplexed batsmen across Australia as well as the touring English cricket team. His five Tests were all against England, in the 195051 series, but was forced to retire to look after his ailing fathers business he could have the worlds best batsmen at his mercy, if he could spare the time.

His school career was notable for his dismissal of Lindsay Hassett with an inswinger in an interhouse match within his school, later to become his captain in both the Victorian and Australian teams.
