For years, Ross Taylor has been considered a destructive batsman. Hence, it was only expected for him to continue the same level of dominance in the IPL. Well, that’s not exactly what happened.

Ross Taylor started his IPL career as a part of the Royal Challengers dugout. His season wasn’t very memorable, to say the least. He hammered just one fifty and scored only 149 runs.
The most notable point in his IPL career came in 2009 when he smashed 81 runs against KKR. This knock is what resonates with the fans till this very day.
The next couple of years were quiet for the former New Zealand skipper. He didn’t score his next fifty until 2012 when he played for Delhi Capitals. So far, he has accumulated 1017 runs in 55 matches with three half-centuries. Given his potential to dominate bowlers, it feels like his performances didn’t live up to fans’ expectations.

A wrestling aficionado since childhood, Sunil used to imitate his favorite wrestlers as a young kid, and started writing professionally about the sport via Sportskeeda’s revenue-sharing opportunity.
Sunil admires former world champions AJ Styles, Will Ospreay, and Kenny Omega for their ability to consistently deliver great matches as well as entertain crowds with their mic skills.
If ever given a chance to change a storyline, Sunil would have booked Roman Reigns to end The Undertaker’s WrestleMania streak instead of Brock Lesnar. According to him, The Tribal Chief needed the victory more than Brock Lesnar, as the latter was already an established performer when he defeated ‘Taker. He would’ve also made that as Taker’s final match.
