Adam Paul Rouse (born 30 June 1992) is a Zimbabwean-born English cricketer who plays as Kent County Cricket Club. Rouse is a right-handed batsman who fields as a wicket-keeper, although he is considered versatile enough to play solely as a specialist batsman. Rouse has played for England at Under-19 level and made his first-class debut in 2013 for Hampshire. He played for Gloucestershire in 2014 before joining Kent ahead of the 2016 season.

Born in the Zimbabwean capital Harare, Rouse moved to England with his family when he was ten years old, living at Farleigh Wallop near Basingstoke. Two years later, he became the youngest person to make a century in an adult league match at the age of twelve. Impressing during his teens in club cricket, Rouse was talent spotted by Hampshire, entering the county's academy and first playing for their second XI in 2008.

In 2010, Rouse played two Youth Test matches and five Youth One Day Internationals for the England Under-19 side against Sri Lanka Under-19s. In 2011 he became the youngest English substitute fielder to take a catch during a Test match. Later in the year Rouse had his development contract renewed. He captained the Hampshire Second XI for the majority of the 2012 season.
