Surridge made his debut for Berkshire in the 1955 Minor Counties Championship against Cornwall. While studying at the University of Oxford the following year, Surridge made a single first-class appearance for Oxford University Cricket Club against Yorkshire at University Parks.[1] During this match, he bowled two wicketless overs in Yorkshire's first-innings. With the bat, he scored a single run in Oxford University's first-innings, before being dismissed by Fred Trueman, while in their second-innings he was dismissed for a duck by Johnny Wardle. Yorkshire won the match by an innings and 189 runs.[2] This was his only first-class appearance for the university. He also played field hockey for the university, for which he was given an Oxford Blue. He continued to play for Berkshire during this period, with him playing for the county until 1958, making a total of 21 Minor Counties Championship appearances.[3]
