West Indies Women captain Stafanie Taylor insists she is not overly perturbed by her recent struggles to find form at the ongoing ICC Women’s World Cup.
The all-rounder, who has third-most runs in the history of women’s One Day International (ODI) cricket, has found scoring to be a scarce commodity at the tournament so far.
In three matches to date, Taylor has managed just 31 runs for an average of 10.33 well below her overall tournament average of 37. With those figures in mind, it's hardly a surprise that the player has hardly managed to spend any time at the crease. In total, Taylor has been at the crease for just 1 hour and 11 minutes, the fifth most in the batting order.
“It’s not something that I’m worried about, yes, my form is a bit down. But I think it happens to the best of players,” Taylor told members of the media on Saturday.
“For me, it's about going back to have a look at some footage and keep reminding myself that I am good enough to get out of any rut. Right now, I’m just trying to stay positive because the team is doing well. Today was probably just one of those days but I’m just trying not to pressure myself too much because I don’t have the form that I would like,” she added.
Taylor’s best performance came against New Zealand where she scored 30 runs from 47 balls. The West Indies Women will next be in action against Australia on Monday.
