Roland Butcher is one of the most popular and richest Cricketer who was born on October 14, 1953 in Saint Philip, Indiana, United States. Roland Butcher (born Roland Orlando Butcher, 14 October 1953, Saint Philip, Barbados) is a former English cricketer, who played in three Tests and three ODIs from 1980 to 1981. He is recognised as being the first black cricketer to represent England. His brief international career was somewhat overshadowed by the death of Ken Barrington, and the ‘Jackman affair’.
Butcher retired from playing professional cricket in 1990, and took up coaching. He interviewed for head coach of the West Indies in 2000, but was unsuccessful, with the job going to Roger Harper. Later in the year, he was appointed head coach of Bermuda, replacing previous part-time coach Allan Douglas. His first major engagement as coach was the 2000–01 Red Stripe Bowl. Butcher either left or was removed from his position only months before the 2001 ICC Trophy, and replaced by Mark Harper. In November 2004, he was appointed director of sports at the Cave Hill, Barbados, campus of the University of West Indies.
