Billy Taylor is an English cricketer. He is a left-handed batsman and a right-arm medium-fast bowler. He started playing for Hampshire during the 2004 season, before which he played for Sussex. While at Sussex, he had won the Frizzell County Championship in 2003, their very first season victory in the trophy's history. Taylor, who also played for Wiltshire, has two hat-tricks to his name and was listed in the 2005 C&G Trophy-winning Hampshire squad. Of late Billy has struggled to get in the side and is generally only used in the one-day format of the game. Billy also contributes a lot to charity. In 2008 Billy walked from the County Cricket Ground in Hove to the Rose Bowl in Southampton for charity. Hampshire chairman Rod Bransgrove announced on 27 August 2009 that the club had released Taylor, ending his five-year tenure at the club. He now plays for the Hampshire League side Totton & Eling. In 2011, he was added to the England and Wales Cricket Board list of reserve umpires, alongside Russell Evans and Alex Wharf. His brother, James, has also played List A and Minor Counties cricket for Wiltshire.
