Plymouth later were promoted to the top league in the westcountry after 3 of their 4 teams were promoted in the 2007 season.

International cricketedit
After just one first-class season, spent with Sebastianites Cricket and Athletic Club, he impressed the selectors after having made three centuries, and was an ideal player to be picked for the 2003 Cricket World Cup. He made his one-day debut against Bangladesh, where his bowling was impressive. He was gentle in pace, but showed variation in line, length and style.
