Wyatt was a schoolteacher. An opening batsman, he made 67 and 47 in his first first-class match for Auckland against Canterbury and was considered a possible inclusion in the touring team to England in 1949,[2] but he played no first-class cricket after the 1947–48 season. He later represented Northland and Nelson in the Hawke Cup. When Nelson withstood a challenge from Poverty Bay in 1958-59 he scored 202 in Nelson's first innings.[3]
