Someone slapped Ross Taylor

Xuhaib

International Coach
Never bothered to speak up while making the moolah from IPL.

Looks a non case for me many sub cont people have this annoying habit of lightly slapping as a banter when usually in the position of authority have experienced this in school the PE teachers were the worst culprit. It's quite annoying if you are subjected to it but very rarely malicious.

Whatever the intent, it's gross. And shouldn't be done if you're trying to develop an internationalist cricket culture. I'd expect that too many stories like this won't sit well with tptb in the IPL, if they know what's good for their bottom line.

It's a shame because I remember the early season Royals crowds fricken loved Ross
I think the crowds are fantastic. It's the higher ups and their Director of Cricket stinking up the place with his new bullying culture and complete lack of common decency.

I'm reading the book atm and there's no way that billionaire bitch **** would have done it if he knew what we now know Taylor said to Faf in the QF (threatened to lay him out lol)

That billionaire bitch would have done what he wanted given he owned Ross Taylor. Faf didn’t own him.

unlikely.

and i don't care about cultural context. he's lucky he tried it on a nice boy like Rossco and not his age group team mate Jesse Ryder. Ryder wouldn't think.

Seeing as Taylor **** his pants and said nothing back (unlike to Faf) you know it’s true. Faf had no power. Dickhead billionaire owner did.

I'm surprised at all these revelations from the book. Always thought of Taylor as a bit of a badass but he seems to have put up with a ton of **** over the years. No Jake The Muss obviously.
