Taylor in line for ODI debut

Ross Taylor, the 21-year old batsman, is in line to make his ODI debut for New Zealand. Taylor and Kyle Mills have been drafted into the New Zealand squad for the fourth one-day international against West Indies.

The call for Taylor comes on the back of a strong domestic season where he scored three centuries in the limited overs State Shield competition. Mills was already on standby as cover for Michael Mason, who has a mild strain of the lower back, but now has been named as a full member of the squad.

New Zealand's selectors announced that James Franklin and Jamie How were being released from the squad to play domestic cricket. However it was not clear whether this selection was specifically for the fourth ODI or for the whole series. New Zealand have already sealed the series 3-0 and all along have.

Squad Stephen Fleming (captain), Nathan Astle, Lou Vincent, Ross Taylor, Scott Styris, Peter Fulton, Hamish Marshall, Brendon McCullum, Daniel Vettori, Kyle Mills, Shane Bond, Michael Mason, Jeetan Patel.
