Domestic and franchise career

Phillips was born in South Africa and moved to New Zealand at the age of five.[4] He made his List A debut on 24 January 2015 in the Ford Trophy.[5]

Phillips made his Twenty20 debut on 4 December 2016 in the 2016–17 Super Smash against the Otago Volts, making 55 off 32 deliveries opening the batting.[6] He was the highest run-scorer in the Super Smash, with 369 runs. He scored his first century (116 not out) in the final regular season match against Central Districts where the Stags won by Duckworth-Lewis. He became the second domestic player since Hamish Marshall to score centuries in all three forms of the game, with Phillips being the first to do so within a single domestic season.[7][8][9]

He made his first-class debut on 6 March 2017 in the 2016–17 Plunket Shield season against Canterbury.[10] In June 2018, he was awarded a contract with Auckland for the 2018–19 season.[11]

Ahead of the 2018 Caribbean Premier League, he was named as one of five players to watch in the tournament.[12] In June 2020, he was offered a contract by Auckland ahead of the 2020–21 domestic cricket season.[13][14] In July 2020, he was named in the Jamaica Tallawahs squad for the 2020 Caribbean Premier League.[15][16]

In February 2017, he was added to New Zealand's Twenty20 International (T20I) squad for their series against South Africa, after Martin Guptill was ruled out due to injury.[17] He made his T20I debut for New Zealand against South Africa at Eden Park, Auckland on 17 February 2017.[18]

In October 2017, he was named in New Zealand's One Day International (ODI) squad for their series against India.
