Profile
The younger brother, by two years, of the Test spinner Matthew, Robbie Hart was a late selection by New Zealand. He became the Test keeper after the retirement of Adam Parore at the end of the England series in 2001-02. Hart also distinguished himself with some outstanding supporting batting during New Zealand's first Test victory on West Indian soil in Barbados, and then in a defensive role in the drawn second Test to give New Zealand a series win for the first time in the Caribbean. He added the Sri Lankan and Indian tours in 2003, both of them spin-bowling intensive which proved a wicketkeeping test of its own. Hart suffered some catching woes in the second Test against India, with chances just eluding his grasp, but still managed six catches overall in the series. He announced his retirement, to concentrate on his business carere, in August 2004. He had played 11 Tests. Lynn McConnell (August 2004)
