Delroy Bertram Taylor (born 30 June 1975) is a former Jamaican cricketer. Taylor was a right-handed batsman who bowled right-arm medium pace. He was born in St Catherine, Jamaica.

Having played Youth Test and Youth One Day Internationals for West Indies Under-19s,[1][2] Taylor made a single first-class appearance for Jamaica against the touring English county of Lancashire in 1996.[3] In this match, he took the wicket of Michael Atherton in Lancashire's first-innings for the cost of 65 runs from 10 overs, while in Lancashire's second-innings he took the wicket of Warren Hegg for the cost of 35 runs from 7 overs. In Jamaicas first-innings, Taylor scored 60 runs before he was dismissed by Mike Watkinson, while in their second-innings he was dismissed by the same bowler for 20.[4] Despite what was a fairly successful debut, Taylor made no further appearances for Jamaica in any format.

Later in 2003, while he studying at Durham University in England for his degree, Taylor made a single first-class appearance for Durham UCCE against Nottinghamshire. In this match, he scored 82 runs in the university's first-innings, before being dismissed by Paul Franks, while in their second-innings the same bowler dismissed him for a single run.[5] In that same season, he made a single first-class appearance for British Universities against the touring Zimbabweans.[3] In this match, he was dismissed in the teams first-innings for 16 runs by Douglas Hondo, while in their second-innings the same bowler dismissed him for 27 runs.[6]
