[10] He bowled well in his debut game and was reselected to play against Victoria in Brisbane in February 1950.

[11] He dropped Herb Turner while fielding at third slip in the game which resulted in the match turning against Queensland,[12] and another notable event for him during the match was when he faced several bouncers which resulted in the crowd heckling the Victorians.
