Taylor, Peter

Australian right arm spin bowler, left handed batsman. His initial selection for the national side saw him referred to as Peter Who? (Exactly)

Took 6/78 v England on his test debut and in the 13 tests he played had a bowling average a tad under 40. His batting was probably better than his bowling in tests with a 26 average and a couple of 50's to boot.

Also a member of the successful World Cup winning squad in 1987 and made 87 appearances for the one day side with a better bowling average than batting average.
