By his teenage years, Daniel's bowling prowess was evident, his fierce dedication turning him into a formidable opponent. His selection in the Jersey national team heralded the start of his professional journey. Bowling was his forte, and he soon became known for his versatile skills—an ability to swing the ball both ways and deceive batsmen with subtle variations in pace and length.

Daniel’s professional debut was marked by an international fixture against formidable opposition, bringing Jersey into the limelight.

One of the notable chapters in Daniel’s career was his participation in the 2022 ICC T20 World Cup Qualifier. His performance against Namibia, where he took a stunning five-wicket haul, became a highlight reel for budding cricketers. The contest not only solidified his reputation as a skilled bowler but also showcased his nerve under pressure. Such performances etched his name into the annals of Jersey cricket history, and his rivalry with some of the best emerging batting talents across associate nations became legendary.
