Born in
Charlwood, Surrey, Street made his
first-class debut in 1909 against
Cambridge University scoring 4
not out, batting at 10, and taking two catches. He played five university matches in three seasons before he made his
County Championship debut against
Somerset in 1912. Street scored his maiden half-century against
Gloucestershire later that season, batting at 10 he made 72 in a ninth wicket stand of 131 with
Percy Fender. This was Street's only fifty in eighty pre-war first-class matches. In 1921 Street scored his maiden century with an innings of 109 against
Essex, sharing in a 141 run partnership with
Vallance Jupp. Street scored two fifties to finish the 1921 season with 617 runs at
an average 21.27, the highest average of his career. Livsey's deputy
George Brown played in the first two Tests of the series before Street got his chance in the Third Test at
Durban. He scored 4 in the first innings and 7 not out in the second innings (when chosen to open), he took one stumping off the bowling of county teammate Jupp. Brown was preferred for the final two Tests. Street took a county record 95 dismissals in the
1923 season, and according to his
Wisden obituary "he was at his best". However this would be his final season. ==Death==
