After top-scoring with 70 for Victoria against the touring English team in November 1894,[5] Harry was selected to play in the Third Test in Adelaide a few weeks later. Australia won by a large margin, but he was not successful, and he never played another Test.[6]
Harry was picked for the Australians' 1896 England tour but was replaced before the tour began, ostensibly because of a knee injury, but in fact because the rest of the team voted him out. He sued the Australasian Cricket Council, accepting an out-of-court settlement of £180.[7]
Harry returned to Bendigo, where he had lived before his first-class cricket career, and resumed work as a miner. He contracted silicosis and died in October 1919, aged 62.[8]
