    Black Caps great Ross Taylor is coming out of international retirement ... but for a different country

    Black Caps great Ross Taylor is coming out of international retirement ... but for a different country


    The 41-year-old will represent Samoa at next month's T20 World Cup qualifiers in Oman, having last played for New Zealand in April 2022.

    Taylor is honoured to represent his mum's side of the family, after she passed away last year.



    The former New Zealand batter will also go by Leaupepe Luteru Taylor - his Samoan chiefly title and first name.
