Gordon played minor counties cricket for Herefordshire in 2011, making a single appearance for the county in the MCCA Knockout Trophy against Bedfordshire.[1] Signed by Warwickshire in that same season,[2] he made impressive performances for the county second XI in that season, before suffering a stress fracture of his back following a pre–season tour to Barbados in early 2012, missing the entire season.[3] Gordon later made his full debut for the county in their first first-class match of the 2013 season against Oxford MCCU at the University Parks,[4] scoring 15 runs in the match and taking the wickets of Sam Agarwal and Stewart Davison in Oxford's first-innings, before taking the wicket of Ben Williams in their second-innings.[5]

In November 2020, Gordon was signed by Audley Cricket Club to play in the North Staffordshire and South Cheshire League during the summer of 2021 in England.[6]
