Taylor told a British newspaper on Monday that she would love to play for the men team, however, there was a part in her that doubted herself. Taylor will play for a men''s club team in Birmingham this year but could be on standby if Sussex needed a wicketkeeper at short notice, the paper said. The 23-year-old Taylor, who is about to leave for the 50-over World Cup in India, said it is a daunting prospect but it''s brilliant that coach Lane backs her to do it in men''s cricket.
