Roger Twose
Wisden CricInfo staff - June 27, 2001

Wisden overview
Sensing the England selection door would never open, Roger Twose migrated to New Zealand more or less with the promise of Test cricket. With every reason, for Twose, a seasoned Warwickshire professional, soon displayed his wares as a crafty left-hand batsman, a miserly medium-pace bowler, and a shrewd tactical captain. Also, everything seemed a means to an end for Twose. As his commercial activities increased, Twose's cricket appetite slackened, to the point that he has not played Test cricket since the 1999 tour of England, where he starred in the 1999 World Cup. Twose has been an essential member of the New Zealand one-day squad, but the fact that he was not available for later one-day expeditions to Sharjah and Sri Lanka suggest his once-bright candle is starting to flicker.
