Career
From Perth, both of McEvoy"s matches at first-class level came during that season"s Sheffield Shield. Serving as a middle-order replacement for Derek Chadwick, his debut came against New South Wales in December 1966. McEvoy"s form was sufficient to gain selection in the next Sheffield Shield match, against Queensland later that month.
Despite being only 20 years old at the time of his debut, McEvoy did not play at state level again, although he did play several matches for state colts teams in the following seasons.
