India v New Zealand Test series – New Zealand Player Ratings
Ross Taylor – 3/10:
Ross Taylor is the senior most member in the team and it isn’t the first time that he landed in India. He also has the experience of having played the Indian Premier League and the experts expected him to be the backbone of the New Zealand batting in this series as they flew in with a rather young squad.
Taylor started off the series with a duck, followed it up with 17 in the second inning of the Kanpur Test. In absence of Williamson, he was to lead New Zealand in the 2nd Test but the change in captaincy didn’t bring about a change in fortunes for the team. They were once again beaten and the skipper scored 36 and 4 runs in the two innings. Taylor was dismissed for his second duck in the last Test and all he managed in the last inning was 32.
