Despite having played hockey at junior level, Logan's passion always lay in cricket, having represented England at Under-15, Under-17 and Under-19 levels. He joined Nottinghamshire in 2000, snubbing an offer from Northamptonshire.

Having suffered a shoulder injury in 2001, he returned and made an instant impact with 11 wickets in the following two matches. He stayed at Nottinghamshire for four years before switching to Hampshire in 2004.

In 2005 he helped Hampshire to a runners-up spot in the Frizzell County Championship.

In 2009 he played in the inaugural London T20 Cricket League where his team, Kensington & Chelsea were the eventual winners.
