He is a right handed batsman and a leg-break googly bowler.
In 2006, he scored 1190 first class runs for Somerset after which selectors viewed him as a genuine all-rounder.

He was not selected in the Australian team despite his reputation of being a good all-rounder since his bowling had not been up to the mark.

He was the vice captain of the team in the 2012 season, when Kumar Sangakkara was the captain.

Captaincy
White was the T20 captain for Australia in 2010-11 season. However, he was relieved of his duties due to his bad form and he was succeeded by George Bailey.
Records
He is the youngest captain of Victory in its 152-year history. His leadership skills, along with his batting, bowling and fielding skills, were responsible for him earning his national team spot.
