Roger Philip Twells Marshall (born 28 February 1952) was an English cricketer. Marshall was a right-handed batsman who bowled left-arm fast-medium. He was born at Horsham, Sussex, and educated at Charterhouse School. Marshall made his first-class debut for Sussex against the touring West Indians in 1973. He appeared infrequently for the county's first eleven, making 23 further first-class appearances, the last of which came against Hampshire in the 1978 County Championship. Primarily as a bowler, Marshall took 49 wickets in his 24 first-class appearances, which came at an average of 39.32, with best figures of 4/37. With the bat, he scored a total of 315 runs at an batting average of 14.31, with a high score of 37. Marshall also played List A cricket for the county, making his debut in that format against Northamptonshire in the 1973 John Player League. He featured in this format even less frequently than he did in first-class cricket, making eleven further List A appearances for Sussex, the last of which came against Kent in the 1978 John Player League.
