His running between the wickets is appaling, and frankly I don't quite understand the favour he generates in these columns. One big innings and a then string of failures follow! Where is the consistency here that we demand of other players;
Taylor was one of Zimbabwes most consistant batsmen against Bangladesh at home last August. He scored 99 (i think) 64* and 52. I can't remeber the last time Stewart Matsikinyeri scored three 50's on the run.

West Indian pitches don't have pace and bounce anymore, havn't for at least 10 years. Barbados is probably the only one left. The tracks Zim are playing on will probably be as slow and low as India to be honest...

You're spot on with the wicket in Zimbabwe. They're slow and low. But in the West Indies the wickets possess moe pace and bounce. Yes i know they're slow-er, but they're not totally dead. They still have some life in them, opposed to our Zimbabwean Wickets. So, i just think that players like Vusi Sibanda and Taylor may enjoy the pace more. :roll:

If the wicket is slow , then we can smile , we can send our spin attack and hope they will be effective . Rayzor , Prosper or even Timycen will do the trick fo us .
