Wilcox was a left-handed batsman. His performances for Cheltenham Cricket Club caught the attention of Gloucestershire when he was in his teens.[2] He played one first-class match in 1939, and resumed after World War II, playing four seasons in the late 1940s without establishing himself in the Gloucestershire team. He scored 27 and 73, his top score, in the match against Hampshire in July 1948.[3] He was more successful for the Gloucestershire Second XI, scoring four centuries in 35 matches between 1939 and 1950.[4]
