A resident of Shanklin on the Isle of Wight where he was a member of Shanklin Cricket Club, Lushington made three appearances in first-class cricket for Hampshire, the first of which came against Lancashire at Southampton in 1870. He would not play his next two first-class matches until 1877, when he appeared against the Marylebone Cricket Club at Lord's and Kent at Southampton. In three first-class matches, Lushington took 3 wickets and scored 48 runs. Lushington died at Shanklin on the Isle of Wight in September 1930. At the time of his death he was heir-presumptive to his cousin, Sir Andrew Lushington, the 5th Baronet of the Lushington baronets. His great-grandfather was James Hay, 15th Earl of Erroll.
