ENGLAND UNDER-19 CAPTAIN CROCKED

28/4/2016

0 Comments

 
Emerging off-spin all-rounder Brad Taylor has joined Hampshire’s growing – and worrying – injury list after damaging his ankle ligaments in a bizarre fall on the lower staircase leading on to the Ageas Bowl outfield before start of play on the second day of the drawn Second XI Championship match with Somerset II.
Taylor, who skippered England in this year’s ICC Under-19 World Cup, could be sidelined for the next month. Putting on a brave face, he is hobbling about on crutches, wearing a moon boot.
Taylor, who is due to captain Hampshire’s Academy side in the ECB Southern Premier League this season, has joined Fidel Edwards, Reece Topley, and Gareth Berg in Hampshire’s growing injury list.
The Somerset match, in which Jimmy Adams scored a first innings century, ended in a draw, with Joe Weatherley scoring 99 in the second innings before edging a catch to slip.
In Taylor’s absence, Weatherley will take charge of the Academy side on a temporary basis.  He captains the team against Ventnor at Steephill on Saturday, and in the opening SPL game against Burridge on May 7.
