Following our successful recent tour of Pakistan, we are delighted to be featured in Wisden and on the ECB website.

Essex club Wanstead & Snaresbrook takes great satisfaction from its multiculturalism, charitable fundraising and broadening the horizons of its members.

Following the season they toured Pakistan as a means to further understand how the club can be more inclusive - with some cricket and sight-seeing along the way.

Congratulations to Mehran Sanwal on signing with Wanstead Cricket Club Cricket Club for the 2026 Essex League campaign.

Following an impressive debut season with Penzance, where he narrowly missed out on being crowned a National Champion, the seamer will make Wanstead his new home and look to make an immediate impact with the ball next summer.
