ACCORDING TO a report posted yesterday on a BBC web site, the West Indies will be without Jerome Taylor for their tour of South Africa due to a back injury. He is due to return home tomorrow.
Taylor has not played since the first Test against Zimbabwe three weeks ago, when he left the field after bowling in the first innings.
He took no part in his side's 3-2 one-day series victory, completed with a win in Harare on Sunday.
The tourists, who arrived in the South Africa yesterday, will name a replacement for Taylor later this week, the report added.
West Indies open the second leg of their tour in Randjesfontein tomorrow with a match against a Nicky Oppenheimer Invitation XI captained by Lance Klusener.
