Jack Taylor, the older brother of Matt, a seamer also at Gloucestershire, has had a promising career as an offspinner disrupted because of doubts about the validity of his action. Taylor was first reported for an illegal action at New Road in May 2013 and required to undertake remedial work which was only passed as legitimate in February 2014. The same fate befell him in 2016, when he missed two months of the summer, and when he was called again in 2017, a third ban - this time of 12 months - was to follow. With his 73 first-class wickets costing him 43.86, it felt as if his bowling career might not recover.
