Bailey made his debut for Staffordshire in the 1939 Minor Counties Championship against Northumberland. He played Minor counties cricket for Staffordshire from 1939 to 1963 (excluding the six seasons in which there was no county cricket due to World War II), making 124 appearances.[1] In 1950, he made his first-class debut for a combined Minor Counties team against the Marylebone Cricket Club at Lord's. He made two further first-class appearances for the Minor Counties, against the touring Indians in 1959 and the touring South Africans in 1960.[2] In these three first-class matches he scored a total of 118 runs at an average of 29.50, with a high score of 79.[3] This score came against the Indians.[4]
