Despite being tidy behind the stumps, Walton's batting has been a serious concern. He has made 2 ducks in 2 One Day International innings and has only managed 10 runs in 4 Test innings.[3]
Following the West Indies A-team tour of India, Walton was named in the 15-member Test squad for the upcoming West Indies' tour of India 4 October 2013.[4] He made his return to international cricket after Marlon Samuels was ruled out of the limited-overs series in New Zealand due to a chronic wrist injury.[5] He was unable to capitalize in the course of the series in which he managed only 17 runs in the three matches that he played. Known regionally as a powerful striker, his T20I debut was also fruitless where he managed 9 runs in the two T20Is played at Eden Park and Wellington Regional Stadium (commercially known as Westpac Stadium).
In February 2017, he scored his first century in List A cricket, when he made 117 in the semi-final of the 2016–17 Regional Super50 tournament.[6] He followed this up with his second List A century less than two weeks later, against the touring England team.[7] In the 2017 CPL Draft, he was selected by the Guyana Amazon Warriors with a $110,000 contract.[8]
On 3 June 2018, he was selected to play for the Vancouver Knights in the players' draft for the inaugural edition of the Global T20 Canada tournament.[9][10] Later the same month, he was named the Best Regional T20 Cricketer of the Year at the annual Cricket West Indies' Awards.[11]
In June 2019, he was selected to play for the Vancouver Knights franchise team in the 2019 Global T20 Canada tournament.[12] In July 2020, he was named in the Jamaica Tallawahs squad for the 2020 Caribbean Premier League.[13][14]
