The question has to be posed, given BRMs woeful run with the bat, is the captaincy affecting our former star performer ?

Woeful run??
He's batted 8 times, scored 2 100s and a 50... MoM in the previous test... Is Taylor's captaincy affecting expectation levels?

Taylor ? Woeful run with the bat ?
He's scored two hundreds and a 78 in the past tour mate, where's he failing ?
If you call that woeful, what would you call Ervine or Chigumburas form ?

This thread is foolish! The man has scored 2 centuries and 50. As much as we may want him to score 100s in every innings, we have to accept that in real life, that doesn't happen. Don't even whisper things like this lest we put the man under unnecessary and unwarranted pressure.

The captaincy has affected Taylor's batting - for the better.

The thread is not foolish. Don't diss me and try to comprehend what the thread is about. It is posing a question. It is seeking answers. One hundred and a handful of misses in the last six innings makes me wonder.
I am sure BRMT has better things to do with his time than hang around here.

Remember when we used to argue about Craig Ervine mate, you stuck up for him and I dissed him.
How times change sloandog
I am just curious, especially given his awful run in the ODI's, what people think.
