Taylor, the leader of Zimbabwe team taking them to new heights. He fast-tracked his way into the national side against Sri Lanka in 2003-04 at the age of 19. His achievement as a captain he took the team into super eights when they won a match against Australia denying them a spot. Got his training from Ian Campbell and was a natural choice for the U19 and national teams. Got his first class debut for Mashonland A and he scored 200 without losing his wicket in the Logan cup. He took the charge into the national side when Taibu had some personal problems and no one there to replace him in the team he got the place in the game against West Indies. He played a lone hand when he struck 118 but his team struggled with the 221 for 9 in unfamiliar conditions. That knock proved a turning point for him in his career putting him in the run for the captain of the team. And the additional responsibility of the captain made wonders in his batting and got four centuries in the seven test matches. Got a good responsibility to lead the team and he should maintain the same vibration all over the team.
