Ross Taylor, the promising young New Zealand batsman who scored his maiden one-day hundred in just his third match, ended up in hospital attached to a saline drip and unable to celebrate his milestone. Taylor, 22, learnt a valuable lesson in his third one-day innings - eat lots, drink plenty and try not to be so nervous. Speaking to The New Zealand Herald, a slightly embarassed Taylor admits the realisation he was in trouble struck at the worst possible time - as he was setting off for his hundredth run.
