From a young age Scuderi showed potential as an all-rounder, being inducted into the Australian Cricket Academy in Adelaide, South Australia. Queensland and South Australia sought to recruit him with South Australia winning Scuderi's services and he made his debut for South Australia in the 1988/89 season.

Scuderi was a regular for South Australia from 1988 until 1999. During that time he played in two Prime Minister's XI matches and was selected in the provisional World Cup squad in 1992. He signed a two-year deal in 2000 to play for Lancashire in the English County Championship. Scuderi also joined the Italian national cricket team (he is of Italian heritage) where he became Captain/Coach until 2008 and then Coach until 2016.

Scuderi now lives in Lancashire and is a professional cricket coach.
