**Stafanie Roxann Taylor** [OD](/source/Order_of_Distinction_(Jamaica)) (born 11 June 1991) is a [Jamaican](/source/Jamaica) [cricketer](/source/Cricket) who is a former captain of the [West Indies women's cricket team](/source/West_Indies_women's_cricket_team).[1] She has represented [them](/source/West_Indies_women's_cricket_team) over 280 times since her debut in 2008. A right-handed batter and [off break](/source/Off_spin) bowler, Taylor was selected as the 2011 [ICC Women's Cricketer of the Year](/source/ICC_Women's_Cricketer_of_the_Year) – the first West Indian to receive the accolade. She was also the first woman to score 1,000 runs in ODIs for the West Indies.[2] She plays domestic cricket for [Jamaica](/source/Jamaica_women's_national_cricket_team) and [Guyana Amazon Warriors](/source/Guyana_Amazon_Warriors_(WCPL)) and has previously played for [Auckland](/source/Auckland_Hearts), [Sydney Thunder](/source/Sydney_Thunder_(WBBL)), [Adelaide Strikers](/source/Adelaide_Strikers_(WBBL)), [Western Storm](/source/Western_Storm), [Southern Vipers](/source/Southern_Vipers), [Southern Brave](/source/Southern_Brave) and [Trailblazers](/source/IPL_Trailblazers).[3]

Born in [Jamaica](/source/Jamaica), Taylor broke into the West Indies team in 2008, aged 17, and immediately inserted herself as a key member of the team. She scored her highest [Twenty20](/source/Twenty20) total on debut, striking 90 runs from 49 balls to help her side to a large victory. In the [2016 World Twenty20](/source/2016_ICC_Women's_World_Twenty20), she was the highest run-scorer and named player of the tournament.

She played in her 100th [Women's One Day International](/source/Women's_One_Day_International) (WODI) match, when the West Indies played India in the group stage of the [2017 Women's Cricket World Cup](/source/2017_Women's_Cricket_World_Cup), on 29 June 2017.[4] On 18 September 2019, during the series [against Australia](/source/Australian_women's_cricket_team_in_the_West_Indies_in_2019%E2%80%9320), Taylor played in her 100th [Women's Twenty20 International](/source/Women's_Twenty20_International) (WT20I) match.[5] On 24 September 2020, in the second match [against England](/source/West_Indies_women's_cricket_team_in_England_in_2020), Taylor became the second cricketer to score [3,000 runs in WT20I cricket](/source/List_of_women's_Twenty20_International_records#Most_career_runs).[6]

## Early life and education

Taylor was born in [Spanish Town](/source/Spanish_Town), [Jamaica](/source/Jamaica).[7] Her unusual first name (Stafanie instead of Stefanie) is attributable to "a slight mishap" when her birth was registered.[8] She was raised in Gordon Pen, an inner city neighbourhood of Spanish Town,[8][9] in what have been described as "modest circumstances".[9]

At primary school, Taylor first played football, and then netball.[10] When she was about eight years old, she saw Leon Campbell, later her personal coach, practising a cricket shot, and asked him what he was doing. He told her, and asked her to try the game of cricket, which she did,[8] including by playing informal street games with young boys.[11] She later went on her first cricket tour, at just ten years old.[7]

For some time, Taylor played both football and cricket, but eventually she decided that the latter would give her more opportunities to travel the world.[8][10]

Although her mother and some of her siblings were track and field athletes at secondary school, Taylor is the only member of her family to play cricket seriously. During her own secondary school days, at Eltham High School, Spanish Town, she represented the school at both Under-14 and Under-16 levels, in each case as the only girl in the team.[8] In one of her matches for the Under-16 team, she even scored a century.[12]

After leaving Eltham High School, Taylor worked on completing her [Caribbean Secondary Education Certificate](/source/Caribbean_Examinations_Council#Examinations) (CSEC) exams at a private institution.[8]

## Career

Taylor first appeared for the [West Indies](/source/West_Indies_women's_cricket_team) during their 2008 tour of [Europe](/source/Europe),[7] during which she granted her side their maiden Twenty20 victory on her debut. Batting first against [Ireland](/source/Ireland_women's_cricket_team), Taylor [opened the innings](/source/Batting_order_(cricket)) for the West Indies, and scored 90 runs from 49 balls.[13] Her total is the second highest score by a West Indian in a [Twenty20 International](/source/Women's_Twenty20_International).[14] She subsequently scored her first half-century in [One Day International cricket](/source/Women's_One_Day_International_cricket) in her next match. In a much more patient innings than she demonstrated in the Twenty20, she scored 66 runs from 97 balls to help her side overcome Ireland.[15] She scored another half-century in her next appearance, scoring 70 runs against the [Netherlands](/source/Netherlands_national_women's_cricket_team).[16] During the [2009 Women's Cricket World Cup](/source/2009_Women's_Cricket_World_Cup), she was the West Indies best performer, leading the team in both runs scored and wickets taken.[17] She repeated the feat at the [2009 ICC Women's World Twenty20](/source/2009_ICC_Women's_World_Twenty20),[18] in which she scored half-centuries in her side's opening two matches to become the only woman to score fifties in three consecutive Twenty20 Internationals, a feat she repeated in 2010 in a three match series against [Sri Lanka](/source/Sri_Lanka_national_women's_cricket_team).[19]
