Franklin made a single first-class appearance for Warwickshire against Derbyshire at North Road Ground, Glossop in the 1900 County Championship.[1] Warwickshire won the toss and elected to bat, making 118 all out. Franklin, who captained Warwickshire in what was his only appearance in first-class cricket, was dismissed for a duck by Billy Bestwick. In a match heavily affected by rain, Derbyshire reached 67/5 before the match was declared a draw.[2]

He died at Saltdean, Sussex, on 25 June 1957.
