Brendan Taylor appreciation thread

[brmtaylor.com admin]

Captains knock by Taylor today. He's the heart of this team, showed why he should be captain across all formats.
121 at a 136 strike rate... great striking, and it's what you want to see of a quality batsman against mediocre bowling.
Taylor was the difference between all out for 180 and what we eventually ended up getting today.

Thanks for giving us a fighting chance today Captain Taylor.

He has also silenced the chatter about his lack of form away from home in this WC.

just makes me laugh when people even debate whether hes our best batter or not.

I laugh even harder when HHM was adamant Sibanda was our best.

although that being said sibanda should have been in this squad

I said it in the other post, but I'm smelling a contract for at least one of Taylor. A struggling side like Derbyshire or Leicester would love a player of his caliber. I know that his name has been flying around lancashire county circles for a while now, especially since Jarvis has joined them. I think that kinda knock last night will only help him get a contract. I'm really surprised though that he hasn't ever been picked up or offered any real meaningful contracts.

The eternal optimist in me says Taylor will stay as we have a decent coach now. Also did he not turn down a contract with Hampshire not so long ago? I like Taylor he is very loyal. We missed a trick not getting chinouya or vitori in the squad.

No idea mate, where did you get that from?
