Field made his debut for Worcestershire against Nottinghamshire at Dudley at the end of August 1928. Worcestershire lost the match by an innings, though Field look 4-60 (his only first-class wickets) in the first innings, all lbw.[1] Nearly three years later he played for Worcestershire against the same opponents at Worcester, but was ineffectual in returning 0-56 from 11 overs.[2] Field's last appearance in first-class cricket came in June 1932, when he turned out for Marylebone Cricket Club (MCC) against Kent at Lord's: he made a pair and returned 0-78 from 18 overs.[3]
He should not be confused with the much more famous Frank Field who had a long career with Warwickshire.
