Paul John Wiseman (born 4 May 1970) is a former New Zealand cricketer, and absolute battler, more specifically an off spin bowler.
"Wiz", as he is nicknamed, was educated at the Long Bay College and can generate a fair amount of turn and he appears to be able to bowl a good line and length.
His lack of variation and his high economy rate means that he remains left-arm finger spinner Daniel Vettori's understudy, despite being nine years older.
Wiseman took 9–13 for Canterbury against Central Districts in Christchurch to record the second best figures for a New Zealand bowler.
