He has been dismissed (out) in the past by several spin bowlers, including the former Pakistan and Indian spinners, Mushtaq Ahmed and Anil Kumble.
After achieving a successful first year in the international cricket, he encountered Mushtaq Ahmed when Pakistan visited Australia in the 1995–96 season.
Blewett then performed well with the bat, until the 1998 tour to India, where he struggled against Kumble and he was dropped in favour of Justin Langer.
However, upon the retirement of captain Mark Taylor in 1999, Blewett was selected to become an opening batsman, until he was dropped from the Australian team in favour of Matthew Hayden in early 2000 after a period of poor performances, which ended his international career.
[6] In December 2013, Blewett became a member of the Fairfax Radio Network (FRN) commentary team that broadcast selected Test matches, One Day Internationals, the Big Bash League (BBL) and T20 International matches on network stations including 3AW Melbourne, 2UE Sydney, 4BC Brisbane, 6PR Perth and on digital radio.
[7][8] In 2018 he joined the Seven Network as a commentator for Test Cricket and Big Bash League and Triple M Adelaide as a co-host of the Dead Set Legends show.
