New Zealand batsman Ross Taylor is confident he will be back to full fitness by the start of the World T20 in India after making his comeback from injury by participating in a domestic competition in Wellington. Taylor scored an unbeaten 26 off 16 balls as he helped his side North Island close out a comfortable six-wicket T20 victory over the South Island at the Basin Reserve on Sunday. It was the former Black Caps skipper's first spell at the crease since he suffered a side strain five weeks earlier while batting against Pakistan in a one-dayer across town at Westpac Stadium. The 31-year-old right-hander didn't shy away from playing his cut and pull shots and hit three boundaries. "It was good to get through that, but I'm confident it will get a lot better come the next couple of weeks," Taylor told cricket.com.au. Taylor said he felt a bit stiff, but had been told that would ease over time.
