He played first-class cricket for Durham UCCE until 2009, having made a total of nine first-class appearances. He scored 97 runs in his nine matches, with a high score of 24. With his right-arm medium-fast bowling, he took 24 wickets at an average of 32.20, with best figures of 4 for 26. He later played minor counties cricket for Oxfordshire, making one appearance against Cornwall in the 2013 MCCA Knockout Trophy. Following his graduation Foster found work in the City of London, where he developed a severe gambling addiction. Having borrowed money and reached desperation, he attempted to win back all his losses by staking £50,000 on a single horse - "when it lost, he accepted his life was over". His addiction led to him contemplating suicide. With help from the Professional Cricketers' Association he was able to stop his addiction. He now works to raise awareness about gambling addictions. He is an ambassador for the Mintridge Foundation, which seeks to promote an active lifestyle for children and young people. (en)
