Parsons was born at Melbourne in Australia and educated at Maidstone Grammar School and Loughborough University.[1] An academy player with Kent County Cricket Club, he played for the county Second XI from 2005 and made his first-class debut in 2007 for Loughborough University Centre of Cricketing Excellence against Worcestershire. Later in the season Parsons played his only First XI match for Kent, playing in a rain-effected limited overs match against Sri Lanka A in July.[1]
Parsons played five first-class matches for Loughborough and signed a developmental contract with Hampshire in February 2009 after graduating in 2008.[2][3] He played once for the county First XI and was released at the end of the 2009 season.[4] He played Australian Grade Cricket[5] and minor counties cricket for Berkshire in 2010 and 2011 and made one first-class appearance for Middlesex against the touring Sri Lankans in 2011.[1]
After he was released by Middlesex at the end of the 2011 season, Parsons took a job in a company run by teammate Jono McLean as social media manager. After the company failed he and McLean established their own company, Wildfire, which promotes brands across the world. The company became part of the 21six group of companies.[6]
