Mott made his cricket debut when nine years old for [Pitt Town](/source/Pitt_Town,_New_South_Wales) Sports Cricket Club, coached by Harry Stephens. Mott began playing representative cricket for Hawkesbury in the under-14 Moore Shield side which featured future Australian cricketer [Steve O'Keefe](/source/Steve_O'Keefe). He continued to play for [Hawkesbury Cricket Club](/source/Hawkesbury_Cricket_Club) in [Grade Cricket](/source/Sydney_Grade_Cricket), racking up 304 matches (191 in 1st Grade) and 510 wickets (337 in 1st Grade).

In April 2011, Mott made his [List A](/source/List_A_cricket) debut as an overseas player for the [Netherlands](/source/Netherlands_national_cricket_team) against [Yorkshire](/source/Yorkshire_County_Cricket_Club) in the [Clydesdale Bank 40](/source/2011_Clydesdale_Bank_40), with Mott scoring 50 [not out](/source/Not_out) in a Netherlands win.[1] He made eight further appearances during the competition, with his final match coming against [Kent](/source/Kent_County_Cricket_Club) in August at the [St Lawrence Ground, Canterbury](/source/St_Lawrence_Ground).[2] Mott had a successful tournament, ending it as the competition's leading wicket taker, taking 21 wickets at an [average](/source/Bowling_average) of 15.95, with best figures of 4/29.[3]
