Taylor poised to achieve historic double

Stafanie Taylor is poised to become the first woman to score 3000 runs and capture 100 wickets in T20 Internationals.

West Indies Women’s team captain, Stafanie Taylor is ecstatic about cricket returning as she moves closer to another milestone.

Taylor’s side is preparing to face England Women in the five-match Vitality T20I series later this month. Since the ICC Women’s World Cup in March, cricket plunged into a five-month break due to the Novel Coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic and will see this series being the first women series since the break.

The 29-year-old is 14-runs short of becoming only the second woman in the format to reach 3000 runs while she is 11 wickets away from being the fourth lady with 100 T20 wickets. If she reaches those milestone, she will be the first woman to complete this double.
