John Pritchard Rogers (10 March 1860 - date of death unknown) was an English cricketer. Rogers' batting style is unknown, though it is known he fielded as a wicket-keeper.
Rogers was born at Bloxham, Oxfordshire, the first child of farmer Robert Rogers and Hannah Pritchard. He was educated at All Saints Grammar School in Bloxham.[1] [2]
Rogers made a single first-class appearance for Middlesex against Surrey at The Oval in 1891.[3] Middlesex made 86 in their first-innings, with Rogers ending the innings not out on 7, while in response, Surrey made 233 in their first-innings. In their second-innings, Middlesex made 144, with Rogers being dismissed for a duck by George Lohmann.[4] In a season in which Middlesex experimented with a number of wicket-keepers, this match proved to be his only major appearance for the county.
He married Annie Wall in 1888 in Greenwich.[5] In 1891, he was working as a school principal in London,[6] at the Finchley House School for English and French Pupils.[7] Prior to that, he was Head Mathematical Master of the Grange School in Eastbourne and First Master of London International College.[8]
