Peter Della Penna: ""Taylor was 11 off 20 balls after 15 overs at the moment Lamichhane's spell ended. He scored 0 off 4 balls he faced v Lamichhane too. His first four balls after Lamichhane left: 6, 6, leg bye, 6. Finished with 40 off his final 15 balls. Hit three 6s and two 4s off Cottrell alone in the last five overs. Shows the impact one bowler can make."

7:36pm A rollercoaster innings that's been accentuated by some brutal hits. Not the most fluent effort from Tallawahs, but they've still managed to get to 177 with some big six-hitting. Fourteen sixes, a lot of them from Taylor at the end. How often he does this - seemingly struggles at the start, before turning it around big time. An unbeaten fifty for him. Set up early on by the promoted Kennar Lewis who got 49 off 24. Glenn Phillips had a struggle and got to 41 off 38, before getting a bad decision just as he was looking like he was beginning to get in. In the middle of all this, another top spell for Sandeep Lamichhane. 2 for 21 in four overs for him.
