Wyatt made his first-class cricket debut for Leicestershire against Loughborough UCCE in 2009.[1] Playing against the West Indians in his second first-class match, he dismissed Ramnaresh Sarwan.[2] Wyatt made a big impression in his appearances for Leicestershire during the 2009 season, particularly in the Twenty 20 Cup game against Durham. Wyatt took 3-14 from four overs, including a maiden, and took the wickets of then current England player Paul Collingwood and former Australia ODI batsman Michael di Venuto.

Wyatt suffered problems with his back in 2010, limiting his appearances to a couple of games in the CB40 competition.

At the end of the 2015 season, Wyatt was one of a number of players whose contracts were not renewed by Leicestershire.[3]
