Ray Thomas attended Adelaide High School.[2] A right-arm fast-medium bowler, he played most of the 1952–53 season for South Australia, but despite claiming the South African captain Jack Cheetham as his first wicket he was unable to make the most of his opportunities and did not play again after that season.[3] At baseball, he represented South Australia as a pitcher.[4][5]
