Walker later became the President of the Rugby Football Union, and in that role accompanied the British Isles team on their 1896 tour of South Africa.
The next year, Walker was back in the England team, this time in the very first international match for Ireland.
Played at the Kensington Oval in London, England won two - nil.
A right-handed batsman,[6] Walker ended his first-class career with 27 runs from four innings, and as a wicket-keeper in the field he did not record any bowling figures.
In William Barnes Wollen's painting "The Rugby Match", featuring Yorkshire's 11-3 victory over Lancashire during the 1893/94 season, a painting that is now held at the Rugby Football Union headquarters in the Twickenham Stadium, Alf Barraclough can be seen being tackled, and passing the ball to Jack Toothill, with Tommy Dobson on the outside, Roger Walker can be seen in the crowd, he is the seventh person to the right of Tommy Dobson's head.
