Enfield made two first-class appearances for Nottinghamshire against Yorkshire at Trent Bridge in 1869, and the same opposition at the Prince's Cricket Ground in London in 1872.[1] In his first match, Nottinghamshire won the toss and elected to bat first, making 111 all out, with Enfield opening the batting and being run out for a duck. Yorkshire responded in their first-innings by making just 43 all out. Nottinghamshire then made 204 all out in their second-innings, with Enfield this time batting at number six, where he was dismissed for 2 runs by John West. Yorkshire were dismissed for 171 in their second-innings, handing Nottinghamshire victory by 101 runs.[2] In his second match, Nottinghamshire again won the toss and elected to bat, making 160 all out, with Enfield being dismissed for a duck by Ephraim Lockwood. In response, Yorkshire made 209 all out in their first-innings to gain at 49 run lead. Nottinghamshire then made 173 all out in their second-innings, with Enfield being dismissed by Lockwood for 4 runs. Chasing 124 for victory, Yorkshire fell 6 runs short.[3]

He died at Nottingham, Nottinghamshire, on 19 September 1923.
