Pocock was one of the many openers used in the poorly performing New Zealand national cricket team of the mid-1990s, but made little impact in Test cricket, averaging under 23.[1] The major teams that he was in were New Zealand, Auckland and Northern Districts. He is the nephew of Michael Graeme Pocock, who also played first-class cricket.
