Jim Stone enjoyed a long fruitful wicket snaffling career with the Parramatta District Cricket Club (then known as Central Cumberland), commencing with the Club’s Shires team in 1927/28 and finishing in Second grade in1947/48.

Second grade was his playground, and he harvested a bumper crop of wickets at that level, over a prolonged period he was outstandingly consistent and prolific. The crafty leg-spinner and handy lower-order batsman set bowling records in Second grade for Parramatta that have stood the test of time. The most career wickets in 2nd grade 565 wickets @ 14.75, the best bowling average in a season 8.73, claimed 50+ wickets in a season on five occasions, and captured ten wickets in a match four times.
