International cricket's nicest team has been exposed by 'confronting' claims from one of its former stars.

But he admits he was looked upon differently, at times.

In the book, Taylor wrote: "A teammate used to tell me, 'You're half a good guy, Ross, but which half is good? You don't know what I'm referring to'. I was pretty sure I did. "Victoria laughed it off, and it probably didn't take Mike long to realise that, however well-meaning, he'd been a bit hasty in his assumptions."When I came back into the team after the captaincy drama, I found myself sitting next to Mike Hesson in the Koru Lounge at Dunedin Airport. He'd come straight from his house. 'My cleaner's Samoan,' he said. 'She's a lovely lady, hard-working, very trustworthy'. All I could say was, 'Oh, cool'.

Players, including teammates, would ask questions about Taylor's ethnicity, especially given the fact he had a European-sounding name.
