The year following his return to England, and thirteen years after his previous appearance in first-class cricket, Sandford played a first-class match for the MCC against Oxford University at Oxford. After being called to the bar, he returned to British India where he practiced as a barrister until his departure in 1882. He retired two years later in 1884. Sandford died in May 1892 at Windsor, Berkshire.
