Perkins made a single first-class appearance for Sussex in 1884 against Nottinghamshire at Trent Bridge.[1] Nottinghamshire won the toss and elected to bat first, making 271 all out. Sussex were then dismissed for just 76 in their first-innings, with Perkins scoring 11 runs before he was dismissed by Alfred Shaw. Forced to follow-on against one of the strongest bowling attacks of the day, Sussex were dismissed for just 44, with Perkins ending the innings not out on a single run. Nottinghamshire won the match by an innings and 151 runs.[2] This was his only major appearance for Sussex.
