Profile

A right-arm fast-medium bowler, Chris Wright made a quiet entry into county cricket and struggled to make an impression on his early occasional outings for Middlesex. He spent the 2005-06 winter playing domestic cricket in Sri Lanka and in 2007, he signed for Essex on a two-year contract after failing to get chances at Middlesex. In the 2011 summer he spent a few weeks on loan with Warwickshire, impressing during his time there with five-wicket hauls against Yorkshire and Nottinghamshire as Warwickshire fell agonisingly short of clinching the County Championship Division One title. At the end of the season they offered him a permanent deal, and he departed Chelmsford for Edgbaston.
