Roger Telemachus (born 27 March 1973) is a former South African international cricketer. He played 37 One Day Internationals and three Twenty20 Internationals for his country.
International career
In the famous 438-game played at the Wanderers on 12 March 2006, he got the wickets of two top Australian batsmen: Adam Gilchrist and Ricky Ponting, both caught in the field from his bowling.
Telemachus was also involved in what is probably the most bizarre stoppage in the history of cricket, when 'calamari stopped play'. During a regional match in South Africa, Telemachus was bowling to Daryll Cullinan, who hit the ball for six, whereupon it ended up in the kitchen and straight into a pan of frying calamari. According to Wisden, "Even then, the bowler was unable to grip the ball and it had to be replaced".[1]
