Thomas had one of the briefest first-class cricket careers of any player. A slow left-arm orthodox spin bowler, he was picked by Somerset for the match against Derbyshire at Chesterfield in May 1928, two weeks before his 17th birthday.[2] Rain prevented any play on the first two days of a three-day game, and when Derbyshire batted on the third and final day, Thomas was not given a bowl. Somerset's innings had barely started when the game was over, and Thomas did not bat. He did not play first-class cricket again.
