Suckling made his debut for Warwickshire against Yorkshire at Edgbaston in June 1919; he scored 2 and 4 and bowled three wicketless overs.[2] He also appeared for his county in a non-Championship game against Worcestershire in August, when he made 39 from number ten in the order in a drawn match.[3]

He did not appear at first-class level again until 1923, when he made the first of his three appearances for Worcestershire: two that season and one in 1924. On his Worcestershire debut, against Lancashire, he took 4-71, the only first-class wickets of his career, including those of Test players Jack Sharp and Cecil Parkin.[4] In Suckling's next game, against Kent at Dudley, he produced his only half-century, making 58.[5] He ended his first-class career on a low note versus Gloucestershire: after 0* in the first innings, he was dismissed for 0 by Percy Mills.[6]

Suckling played in the Lancashire League as the club professional for Enfield Cricket Club in 1925.[7]

gollark: Surely if you want to duplicate it you could just... use the *same* seed, again...?
gollark: So I decided to look at the website on a device which could actually render the sculpture thing, and looking at the FAQ, this seems... odd...:> Each unique seed is stored immutably on the blockchain, and while seeds are case-sensitive, your seed (and therefore, your sculpture) cannot be duplicated by anyone.... *what* does case sensitivity have to do with anything? How can it "not be duplicated"?
gollark: There's this nice one I use for wallpapers: https://github.com/TomSmeets/FractalArt/
gollark: Calling NFTs a form of art themselves, and not the artistic thing they happen to be tied to, seems like calling the fiat currency you might buy artwork with also art.
gollark: Anyway, while it does seem like a cool generative art-type thing (the viewer runs very slowly on my phone so it's hard to tell) I don't think the NFT bit is intrinsic to it at all, or relevant to it except as a somewhat weird way to have it pay for itself.
