KINGSTON, Jamaica (CMC):

West Indies star all-rounder Stafanie Taylor says winning next month's Twenty20 World Cup in Sri Lanka and remaining the number-one ranked batsman in the world are now her priorities, after leading Jamaica to the Regional Women's T20 title on Saturday.

Taylor was voted the tournament's Most Valuable Player, after scoring 409 runs at an average of 81.80 and grabbing 13 wickets at 6.15 runs apiece.

In the final, she hammered an unbeaten 57 and then returned to take four for nine with her off-spin as Jamaica trounced arch-rivals Trinidad and Tobago by 16 runs.

"I want to stay on top of my game and remain the No.1 player in the world. That's very important. I'm working very hard to reclaim that spot and keep it," said the 21-year-old.

"We have a trip to England and ICC World Twenty20 coming up, so there is much for which I can look forward, making some more big scores in all of these matches."

She added: "In this way, it would tie into our main goal of winning a World Cup. We have been working very hard over the last few years to achieve this, so it would good if we can accomplish this.

"I am going to be working really hard to make sure that we achieve these goals and I am looking forward to it."

West Indies Women are down to compete in Group B of the T20 World Cup alongside hosts Sri Lanka, New Zealand and South Africa, in the tournament that runs from September 23 to October 7.

Taylor has been at the heart of the West Indies Women success in recent outings, scoring heavily earlier this year as the regional side recorded series wins over both India and Sri Lanka in one-day and T20 series in the Caribbean.

"I am going to working really hard to make sure that we achieve these goals and I am looking forward to it."
