Randolph made his first-class debut for Oxford University against the Marylebone Cricket Club in 1855 at the Magdalen Ground, Oxford. He made two further first-class appearances for the university in that season, before making two further appearances in 1856.[1] It was in 1856 that he made a single first-class appearance for Sussex against Surrey at the Royal Brunswick Ground, Hove.[1] He made a final first-class appearance for Oxford University in 1857 against the Marylebone Cricket Club.[1] In his six first-class appearances for the university, he scored 199 runs at an average of 18.09, with a high score of 61.[2] This score came against Cambridge University in 1855.[3]
