Ernest Vincent Wright MC (24 October 1894 - 16 December 1977) was an English cricketer. Wright was a right-handed batsman. He was born at Kettering, Northamptonshire.
Wright served during World War I, by 1917 he was a temporary lieutenant, and in September of that year he was promoted to acting captain. By February 1918 he still held the simultaneous ranks of temporary lieutenant and acting captain in the Tank Corps. He was awarded the Military Cross, the citation for which appeared in The London Gazette in July 1918, and reads as follows:
In February 1919, three months after the war was over, he relinquished his rank of temporary captain.
Following the war, Wright made two first-class cricket appearances for Northamptonshire in 1919 against Warwickshire and Sussex, both at the County Ground, Northampton.[1] He scored a total of two runs in these matches.[2] He died at the town of his birth of 16 December 1977.
