Hewat was a fast bowler. His best first-class figures were 7 for 30 against Hawke's Bay in 1887–88.[1] Two days later, playing for a Wellington XXII against the touring English team, he took 5 for 44, all bowled, including the first three batsmen for four runs.[2] Earlier in the same season, on his first-class debut, he had taken 6 for 25, bowling unchanged through the innings, against Nelson.[3]
