Pigg was educated at Abington House School, Northampton, and Emmanuel College, Cambridge.[2] As a cricketer, Pigg was a right-handed middle or lower order batsman and a right-arm round-arm fast bowler. He was successful as a batsman in his second game for the university side, scoring 34 not out and 32 against the MCC.[3] This led to his selection for the 1877 University Match against Oxford University, though he was not successful.[4] He played only one further match for Cambridge University in the 1878 season.
Pigg graduated from Cambridge University in 1879 with a Bachelor of Arts degree; this was converted to a Master of Arts in 1885.[2] He appeared in first-class cricket matches at the Hastings end-of-season cricket festival from 1886 to 1891, and these included several games in the North v South and Gentlemen v Players series, though he did not play in any of the "major" London-based fixtures.[1] In 1886, he scored 59 and took four second innings wickets when a South team played the Australians.[5] And in 1889 he took seven second innings wickets for 55 runs (and 11 for 112 in the match) as the Gentlemen beat the Players by one wicket.[6] He played minor cricket for Hertfordshire from the 1870s and was the team's captain in Minor Counties matches from 1895 to 1897.[1]
