Stricker was selected to play for Transvaal in March 1913, making his first-class debut against Griqualand West, scoring an unbeaten 66.[1] He made two further first-class appearances in January 1914 for Transvaal against the touring Marylebone Cricket Club.[2] In his three first-class matches, he scored 70 runs at an average of 23.33.[3] With the ball he took two wickets, with best figures of 1 for 23.[4] Stricker served in the South African Army during the First World War, where he was a conductor in the South African Service Corps (Animal Transport).
