Paul Wiseman

Paul Wiseman, New Zealand cricketer and coach
Paul John Wiseman (born 4 May 1970) is a former New Zealand cricketer. "Wiz", as he was nicknamed, was an off spinner who took 9–13 for Canterbury against Central Districts in Christchurch to record the second best figures for a New Zealand bowler. Internationally, however, he was unable to forge a significant career due to the incumbency of first-choice spinner Daniel Vettori.
