A Twitter user thanked Taylor for the wonderful cricketing memories.
Ross Taylor, thank you for the memories. My fav knock: the Pallekele one v Pakistan at 2011 WC, especially the takedown of Shoaib at the death (after the epic Kamran Akmal reprieve). And of course for RCB against KKR at Centurion in 2009. Stunning leg side swings.
