Ross Taylor

The immense talent of Ross Taylor has never been in question, but until the end of the 2015 World Cup in Australia he was pretty inconsistent with his performances. But since that tournament, he has scored 2892 runs in ODIs at a stunning average of 68.85.

In the last four years, Taylor has scored 523 runs in English conditions at an average of 74.71. In 2015, he scored back-to-back centuries against England in a 5-match ODI series. The first of those centuries came at the Oval in 87 balls, where he combined with Kane Williamson for a 100 run partnership and took his team to a match winning total of 398.

In the next game at Southampton, he again joined hands with Williamson for a double century partnership and registered a composed century while chasing 303, as the Black Caps took a 2-1 lead in the series.
