Taylor is our next freak (you gotta love the lingo) and I think he will stay. Zim is not in the wilderness anymore, these guys can now get overseas contracts as well, without renouncing an international career. County journeyman vs a test career, this equation has swung back from the days when Sean Ervine & Co. made their decisions. So I don't blame Ervine, Ballance, de Grandhomme etc. because that was the main viable option then.

Speaking of de Grandhomme Boundary, he is doing very well. In the year 2012, we may actually witness the following Ballance(Eng), de Grandhomme(NZ), all following in the footsteps of this fellow! ;)

Is he a batsman or bowler? Difficult to work out from his record.

Has a first class hundred, but batted at no. 10 for Namibia in their last outing - reminds me of my U-17 cricket team.
