WELLINGTON: Ross Taylor was dumped as captain of the New Zealand cricket team in favour of Brendon McCullum Friday and will sit out the Black Caps' upcoming tour of South Africa, officials said.
Taylor, who has presided over a string of poor results since taking over in June 2011, was axed after rejecting an offer to remain Test skipper while handing limited overs duties to McCullum, New Zealand Cricket chief executive David White said.
