Aaron James Redmond born 23 September 1979 in Perth, Western Australia is a New Zealand international cricketer. Aaron Redmond transformed himself from a legspinner with Otago to a hard-working top-order batsman for Canterbury. His returns have been solid rather than spectacular, but coupled with New Zealand's poor results from their top order and a consistent 2007-08 season where he averaged 40, Redmond earned a call-up to the Test squad to tour England in 2008. He found the top level a tough challenge with just 54 runs in three Tests, and his international future is in the balance. But he at least managed to avoid the dubious fate of his father, Rodney, who is part of the one-cap wonder club despite scoring 107 and 56 in his only Test after he couldn't adapt to wearing contact lenses and retired.
