Canada U19 player Amish Taploo is profiled in his local paper, the Richmond Hill Liberal:-
Introduced to the game when he was just five years old, Taploo was quick to credit his father for launching his love of the game. During those days, he had fond memories of watching his father perform for a couple of years before he could pick up a bat and swing it. It wasn’t until Taploo was eight years old when he made his debut on the pitch in a friendly match against a Trinity College team at Port Hope.
Just one year later, he took part in his first official season with the T and D League, where he has since been a fixture in that circuit. His best performance occurred last year when he scored 106 in a domestic T and D League match. Currently a first-year student at the University of Western Ontario when he’s not on the pitch, Taploo is looking forward to the upcoming championships and acknowledged Canada will be put to the test when they face the likes of Pakistan, Sri Lanka and Afghanistan.
