Taylor honoured by team mates

Read Now
 
​Ross Taylor was recognised by his peers last night as the eighth recipient of The Players’ Cap. NZCPA Life Member and NZC Board member Martin Snedden presented Taylor with The Players’ Cap in front of delighted team mates, partners and team management.

A surprised Taylor was reflective of what The Players’ Cap means to the group stating,
 
“Mostly I am thankful to the other guys. This group of players have a genuine collective approach and getting this type of thing is really rewarding”.

“The award is something to be really proud of, its special, and I just want to thank everyone.”
 
Taylor is the second player to be acknowledged more than once as the players’ Player of the Year, the other being Kane Williamson who secured three consecutive Players’ Cap’s between 2015 – 2017.
