Is an Australian cricketer. Rogers is a left-handed opening batsman and a left-handed leg-break bowler. He is currently captain of Derbyshire and spent many years with Western Australia. Despite a first-class average of nearly 50, he did not play for the Australia national cricket team until the age of 30, though he has appeared three times for Australia A. Rogers batting talent had led some to anoint him as the next Australian opener, replacing Justin Langer. He missed out on the spot to Phil Jaques, but played his only Test match in January 2008, replacing the injured Matthew Hayden, before having his central contract terminated in April. Rogers' score of 279 was the second highest ever by a West Australian, behind the 355 not out that Geoff Marsh scored at the same ground in December 1989. On 13 January 2008 he was added to the Australia Test squad as a cover for the injured Matthew Hayden, who had torn a hamstring. On 15 January Rogers was confirmed as playing at the WACA Ground in the third Test against India which was to start the following day.
