On his debut against Surrey James Lillywhite's Cricketers' Annual reported that "Mr. E. Wright, an amateur debutant, [contributed] a very freely hit 32." Earlier he had played for Somerset in 1875, before they were first class, and for Devon between 1876 and 1884.He joined the Colonial Service and was posted to British Guiana. He made his debut for the colony against Trinidad in 1882-83 when he took 4 wickets and then scored 123 out of the British Guiana total of 168.

A small group of police with Wright in charge went there at once to investigate the incident. On the following day Wright and a colleague, Inspector Clarke, were strolling unarmed through the town and were mistaken for members of the local police force. They were attacked and whilst Inspector Clarke received a fractured skull from which he eventually recovered, Wright was so badly hurt that he died shortly afterwards.".
