Rose made his debut in an innings defeat against Sussex at Hove in late May 1922; he scored 4 and 15, and bowled five wicketless overs.[1] His next match, against Kent at Gravesend, saw Worcestershire crushed by an innings and 236 runs. Rose himself, however, had a fairly successful game with the ball, claiming 3–68 in Kent's first innings; his victims were Bill Ashdown, Edward Solbé and Tich Freeman.[2]

His next game, against Warwickshire at Amblecote, saw him take four wickets in the match,[3] but in the three other games he played at first-class level Rose contributed absolutely nothing: he took no wickets and held no catches, while with the bat he made just 11 in four innings.[4]
