Heres what CricBuzz says about him.
That highlight aside, Telemachus had a largely uneventful career in international cricket. He was consistent in picking wickets but never had a five-wicket haul. Another factor that went against him was the lack of pace that he had when compared to his peers. This factor made him less effective on pitches that didn't have much in it for the bowlers. Having debuted in 1998, injuries and stiff competition ensured that he was mostly in and out of the side. After the home series against Sri Lanka in 2002, it did seem like he would struggle to make a comeback but consistent domestic performances saw him earn a recall in the 2006-07 season, eventually being a part of the World Cup squad as well.

Heres what ESPNcricinfo says about him.
Roger Telemachus has been unlucky to have his career coincide with a period during which South Africa have been liberally blessed with fast bowling talent. This, together with a couple of badly-timed injuries, held his career back. He was chosen to tour Australia in 1997-98, but had to withdraw from the squad after failing a fitness test. In 1998 he made it to England, only to have to return home with an injury early in the tour. He was given a good un in the side in 2000 and 2001 but failed to cement his place with a string of ordinary performances and an economy rate which was too high. He is a genuine No. 11 batsman, but in February 2007, he was named in the South African squad for the World Cup in the Caribbean. (February 2007)
