Barney Guy Rogers (born 20 August 1982) is a Zimbabwean former international cricketer. He played four Test matches and 15 One Day Internationals (ODIs) for the Zimbabwe national cricket team between 2002 and 2005 and first-class cricket in Zimbabwean domestic competitions. He played as a left-handed batsman who bowled occasional off-spin. Rogers was good enough at field hockey to play at under-20 level for Zimbabwe.
Rogers was born at Harare into a cricketing family and was coached by his father from an early age. He is naturally right-handed but his father felt that the stronger hand should be used at the top of the handle and he coached Rogers to bat right-handed.[1][2] He attended Brydon Country School and played in their 1st XI as an all-rounder alongside future international Sean Ervine. His secondary education was at St. John's College where he was captain of the 1st XI. He played in Zimbabwe under-13 and under-19 teams.[1]
Rogers was admitted to the CFX Academy in 2001 and impressed head coach David Houghton, making his first-class cricket debut for the team playing as an opening batsman in the Logan Cup, scoring four fifties in five games.[1][2]
