Former England women’s cricketer Katherine Taylor is appointed as men’s fielding coach for an upcoming New Zealand series, according to multiple reports. The 36-year-old has previously represented England at the international level, winning both the Twenty20 and 50-over Women’s World Cups with the team in 2009. Taylor also played extensively across formats, making 226 appearances for England before retiring from international cricket in 2019. The reports describe her as moving into a coaching role focused on fielding for the men’s team during the tour. Both outlets frame the appointment as a continuation of her involvement in cricket after her playing career, drawing on her experience at elite level and her record with England in major tournaments. The available information does not specify the exact match dates, team structure, or whether she joins a broader coaching staff beyond the fielding role.
