Wellington: Bitterness created by the sacking of Captain Ross Taylor seems likely to follow the New Zealand cricket team into their demanding home series against England beginning on Saturday.
Taylor rejoined the New Zealand team in Auckland on Thursday as they prepare for the first of three Twenty20 internationals against England; to be followed by three one-dayers and three Test matches, sports24 reports.
While he sought to be diplomatic, Taylor’s first comments to reporters suggested many of the issues created by his sacking late last year remain unresolved and that the New Zealand team may be divided as they face a testing series.
