Throughout his career Philipson was competing for the wicket-keeper's spot in the English Test side with Gregor MacGregor, which resulted in him playing in only five Test matches for England, which he did on the 1891/2 and 1894/5 tours of Australia.

He also toured India with George Vernon in 1889, though this tour did not include any Tests.

A visit to Japan on the way back from the Test series in Australia in 1895 inspired him to apply knowledge that he acquired there to estate of Stobo Castle, near Peebles, in the Scottish Borders.
