Mike Roseberry
Michael Anthony Roseberry is a former English cricketer.
Mike Roseberry was educated at Durham School, where he formed a reputation as an all-round sportsman. As an exciting right-handed batsman, he was honoured by The Cricket Society.
He represented Middlesex [County Cricket Club|Middlesex] in two spells, Durham. He forged a successful opening partnership for Middlesex with Desmond Haynes and he enjoyed his best season in 1992 with 2,044 runs in first-class cricket. This led to him being chosen for the England "A" tour of Australia. However, his career did not kick on from this height. He left Middlesex to take on the captaincy of his home county of Durham, but suffered a miserable loss of form. He resigned his captaincy of Durham in August 1996; in four seasons there he never made a County Championship century. He returned to Middlesex in 1999 with limited success, never reproducing the form of his best years. He was awarded a testimonial by Middlesex in 2002.
He is the elder son of Matty Roseberry, a successful Durham businessman and his younger brother Andrew represented Leicestershire and Glamorgan. He is a supporter of Sunderland Football Club, and is married to Helen with two daughters.
