Leicestershire, World Cups… and army cadets with Sam Northeast

Former Leicestershire allrounder Rob Taylor, now Uppingham School’s director of cricket, shares his journey from schoolboy player to county professional and international cricketer with Scotland.

From vying with David Willey for a spot on Northamptonshire’s academy to discussing whether Uppingham could serve as a Foxes outground, this episode features some great stories from Rob on life before, during, and after the county grind.

The Cricketer's schools coverage is brought to you in association with our friends at Durant Sports.
