Hall played a few times for Middlesex's Second XI in 1954 and 1955,[1] but he never made a first-class appearance for the county. His debut came at the end of June 1956 when Worcestershire played Oxford University; he took all three of his first-class wickets in this game, dismissing Jimmy Allan twice, and made his highest score of 21 in the first innings.[2]

In the two matches he played in 1957 — against Oxford University once again and Combined Services — he took no wickets and scored one run. Hall never played first-class cricket again.

Hall went on to take over 1720 wickets for Stanmore Cricket Club and captained the club 1966-1970.
