Awarded a NSW rookie contract in 2013, he made his BBL debut against the Renegades in BBL04. His first three balls went for boundaries, then he dismissed Matthew Wade and Callum Ferguson to finish 2/38.
Then a Sutherland grade player from Engadine, he was bought by Kings XI for $271,000 at the IPL auction and, in the same week, named in Australia's T20 squad for a tri-series. He called the selection a complete shock.

A BBL five-for in January 2022 led to his T20I debut in Lahore that April, then an MLC deal with Washington in 2023 and an ODI debut in 2024.

Freedom spearhead
Added to Australia's T20 World Cup squad, then took 16 wickets for Washington. Washington Freedom finished third in the 2026 group stage (6 wins, 4 losses, 12 points), beat MI New York by 6 wickets in the Eliminator on 15 July (chasing 267, they reached 270/4 in 18.4 overs) and lost the final to LA Knight Riders by 1 run on 18 July at the Oakland Coliseum.
Batting at No. 8 he hit three sixes and two fours to finish a chase of 166 with Marco Jansen, and added 1/32, as Washington won by three wickets with two balls left.
Played 8 of Washington's 13 games on scorecards I opened: 16 wickets in 31 overs (economy 8.19, best 3/31 in the final), plus 75 runs with the bat. Totals are my sums of match scorecards.
