Former Aussie pacer Dirk Nannes very upset with 'lack of sportsmanship' after Ross Taylor's 290

Former Australia fast bowler Dirk Nannes has slammed his countrymen's 'horrendous sportsmanship' for failing to acknowledge Ross Taylor's inspiring 290-run knock in the second Test in Perth.

Taylor broke the century-old record on Monday after scoring the highest-ever score by a New Zealand batsman overseas as New Zealand posted a 65-run lead on the fourth day.

Nannes, who donned the hat of a cricket commentator during the game, said that not one person from the Australian camp went and shook Taylor's hand after his record-breaking innings, Stuff.co.nz reported.
