Phillips made his debut for Monmouthshire against the Surrey Second XI in the 1921 County Championship. He played Minor counties cricket for Monmouthshire from 1921 to 1934, making 19 appearances.[2] During this period he made a single first-class appearance for Wales against the Marylebone Cricket Club in 1925.[3] He scored 11 runs in the Welsh first-innings before being dismissed by Joseph North, while in the second-innings he was dismissed for 2 runs by Jack Hearne.[4]

Despite coming from a family which ran a brewery, Phillips appears to have shown little interest in the business.[1] He died in Budleigh Salterton, Devon, England on 7 June 1964.
