Sandri played for the Victoria Second XI in the 2005/06 Australian season.[1] Sandri later moved to England, where he played a single match in county cricket for the Worcestershire Second XI against the Yorkshire Second XI in 2008, but unable to force his way into the Worcestershire first eleven.[2] While in England, he also played in the Central Lancashire League in 2008 for Radcliffe, and in the Lancashire League for Lowerhouse in 2009.[3]

By 2012, he had qualified to play for Italy by way of his Italian heritage. He was selected as part of Italy's fourteen man squad for the 2012 World Twenty20 Qualifier in the United Arab Emirates in March 2012.[4] He made his Twenty20 debut during the tournament against Oman. He made eight further appearances during the tournament, the last of which came against Kenya.[5]

In his nine matches, he took 13 wickets with the ball at a bowling average of 19.23, with best figures of 4/9.[6] He ended the tournament as Italy's joint leading wicket-taker alongside Damian Crowley.[7] With the bat, he scored 122 runs at an average of 20.33, with a high score of 49 not out.[8] Italy finished the tournament in tenth place and therefore missed out on qualification for the 2012 World Twenty in Sri Lanka.

In April 2013, he was selected in Italy's fourteen man squad for the World Cricket League Division Three in Bermuda.[9] In the same year he also played for Sydney Thunders[10]

In September 2017, he took the most wickets for Italy in the 2017 ICC World Cricket League Division Five tournament, with a total of thirteen dismissals in five matches.[11]
