Monkhouse made his debut in county cricket for Warwickshire in a first-class match against Surrey in the County Championship.[1] He made a further first-class appearance the following season against Lancashire in the 1986 County Championship.[1] He took 2 wickets in his 2 matches, at 47.50 a piece.[2] He joined Glamorgan in 1987, making his first-class debut for the county against Oxford University. He made 7 further first-class appearances for Glamorgan, the last of which came against Yorkshire in the 1988 County Championship.[1] In his 8 first-class matches, he took 16 wickets at a respectable average of 30.06, with best figures of 3/37.[2] It was for Glamorgan that he made his List A debut in the 1987 Refuge Assurance League against Northamptonshire. He made 3 further List A appearances for Glamorgan, all coming in 1987, with his final appearance coming against Hampshire.[3] In his 4 limited-overs appearances for the county, he took 8 wickets at an average of 11.62, with best figures of 5/32.[4] His best bowling figures came against Cheshire in the 1987 NatWest Trophy.[5]
