Tamplin made his first-class status debut while on War Service[1] in India for Bengal against Bihar in the 1942/43 Ranji Trophy at Eden Gardens, Calcutta.[2]

Tamplin later returned to the United Kingdom and made his first-class debut for Glamorgan against the touring South Africans in 1947. Tamplin played 2 further first-class matches for the county in 1947, against Kent and Derbyshire.[3] In his 4 first-class matches, he scored 56 runs at a batting average of 18.66 and a high score of 40*.
