Summary Shane Bond has accused coach Mike Hesson of "sabotage" in his handling of sacking of Ross Taylor.

 

New Zealand bowling coach Shane Bond has accused national coach Mike Hesson of "sabotage" in his handling of the sacking of captain Ross Taylor, inflaming a crisis in New Zealand cricket ahead of a home series against England.

 

A letter written by Bond to New Zealand Cricket under legal advice, in which he gives a personal account of the circumstances of Taylor s sacking, was leaked to the media on Friday.

 

Bond claims that public statements made by Hesson on the manner in which Taylor s sacking took place are "dishonest", echoing Taylor who has previously claimed leading figures in New Zealand Cricket have lied.

 

New Zealand Cricket chief executive David White responded by saying Bond s comments represented a personal opinion and a misinterpretation of what had taken place.
