He was born at Rochester in Kent and educated at Harrow School.[1] Foster played in the Harrow cricket XI in 1923 and made ten appearances for Kent County Cricket Club's Second XI in 1924–1925, scoring a century against Norfolk.[1][2] He attended the Royal Military College, Sandhurst, playing cricket against Royal Military Academy, Woolwich in July 1925,[1] before being commissioned as a 2nd Lieutenant in the Buffs in February 1926.[3] Foster made two trial appearances for Kent in the 1930 County Championship. His first-class cricket debut came against Middlesex at Folkestone on 9 July and he played again in the county's following fixture against Surrey at Blackheath.[1] The trial was not a success and these were Foster's only first-class appearances.[2] He played twice for the Army team in 1934 against the Public Schools.[1] His Wisden obituary describes him as a "good stylist" who was "quick on his feet, with a beautiful pair of wrists" when playing at school.[2] After retiring from the army with the rank of Captain, Foster died at Edenbridge, Kent in November 1976 aged 71.[2] References1. ^1 2 3 4 [https://cricketarchive.com/Archive/Players/29/29496/29496.html Jack Foster], CricketArchive.
