Franklyn Albert Rose (born February 1, 1972 in Jamaica) is a West Indian cricketer.

He is a right-handed batsman and a fast right-arm bowler who possesses a lot of power with his full-length outswing. In the first innings in which he participated, he achieved figures of 6 for 100, but for Test after Test beyond this, his bowling disappointed in comparison, only picking up during a Test match in Durban, where he achieved figures of 7 for 84. He has achieved just one solitary fifty in Test cricket, achieved against Zimbabwe.

Rose has played for various more community-based outfits since departing from the international scene. One more prominent appointment was his recruitment for the 2004 season in England for Lashings Cricket Club. Rose, always a controversial figure in any cricketing scene, be it local, national or international, in turn fell out with equally controversial chairman of Lashings David Folb. Rose has also played in Sydney, Australia, and for the Chicago Tornadoes of the USA's Pro Cricket league.
