Ransom made his first-class debut for Hampshire against Sussex in the 1947 County Championship. On debut Ransom took four wickets in both of Sussex's innings. Ransom's debut season was his most successful, claiming 54 wickets at a bowling average of 28.50. All of Ransom's three five wicket hauls came in the 1947 season.

With the ball Ransom took 88 wickets at a bowling average of 34.89, with best figures of 5-50, which was one of Ransom's three fifties. In addition Ransom took 18 catches.

Ransom's final first-class match for the Marylebone Cricket Club came against Cambridge University in 1951. Additionally in 1949, Ransom represented the South against the North in a single first-class match. 1949 was also the year Ransom was awarded his Hampshire cap.
