Ross Taylor is considered as one of the finest hitters in the World at present. He has a technique that suits well for the shorter versions of the game. He has been the mainstay of New Zealand’s batting lineup for a while, but he has failed to live up to the expectations in the IPL. On current form, this year might be the year of Ross, The Boss. With his IPL franchise in IPL 6 opted out of IPL, he will be one of the players to watch out for in this year’s IPL auction.
