Dean played Minor counties cricket for Staffordshire from 1982 to 2003, which included 161 Minor Counties Championship appearances〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Minor Counties Championship Matches played by Steve Dean )〕 and 47 MCCA Knockout Trophy matches.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Minor Counties Trophy Matches played by Steve Dean )〕 It was for Staffordshire that he made his debut in List A cricket for, against Glamorgan in the 1986 NatWest Trophy.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=List A Matches played by Steve Dean )〕 Over the next 17 years, Dean would go on to make a further 16 limited-overs appearances for Staffordshire,〔 in which he scored 302 runs at an average of 14.38.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=List A Batting and Fielding For Each Team by Steve Dean )〕 His highest score of 72 came for Staffordshire against Warwickshire in the 1987 NatWest Trophy.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Staffordshire v Warwickshire, 1987 NatWest Trophy )〕 For a Minor counties cricketer, Dean would go on to make an unusually high number of List A appearances for a cricketer not attached to a first-class county. Playing for Staffordshire allowed Dean to represent the Minor Counties cricket team, who he made his limited-overs debut for in the 1992 Benson & Hedges Cup against Middlesex, with Dean playing an additional 26 List A matches for the team, with his final match coming in the 1998 Benson & Hedges Cup against Leicestershire.〔 Dean was more successful with the bat for the Minor Counties, 583 runs at an average of 22.42, with a high score 56〔 which came against Yorkshire in 1997.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Yorkshire v Minor Counties, 1997 Benson & Hedges Cup )〕 It was for the Minor Counties that he made his first-class debut for against the touring South Africans in 1994, his only first-class appearance for the team.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=First-Class Matches played by Steve Dean )〕 In the Minor Counties first-innings he scored 39 runs, before being caught by Hansie Cronje off the bowling of Pat Symcox. In their second-innings, Dean was caught once again by Cronje, this time off the bowling of Tim Shaw for 34 runs.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Minor Counties v South Africans, 1994 )〕 The season prior to this match, Dean played a single List A match for Warwickshire against Nottinghamshire in the 1993 AXA Equity & Law League, scoring 17 runs.〔〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Nottinghamshire v Warwickshire, 1993 AXA Equity and Law League )〕 He did not feature again for Warwickshire, or for any other first-class county. Continuing to play for Staffordshire in Minor counties cricket and in the NatWest Trophy and Cheltenham & Gloucester Trophy, Dean played his final first-class match for the county in 2nd round of the 2003 Cheltenham & Gloucester Trophy against the Hampshire Cricket Board, which was played in 2002.〔 Two years previously, he had played his second and final first-class match, this time for the Marylebone Cricket Club against New Zealand A.〔 Opening the batting with Graham Gooch, Dean scored 12 runs before being dismissed by Daryl Tuffey.
