Bevan helped his bid to keep his Test place with three surprise wickets off his left-arm wristspinners on the final day of the Test.
His 3-46 off 14 overs partly made up for disappointing batting: a first-ball duck in the first innings and a 20 in the second.
Asked why 26-year-old Bevan was struggling, Taylor told a press conference: ``He got 0 and 20 here, but I wouldn't say he's struggling.
``He's got to play like Michael Bevan can in Sydney. I don't care if they're bowling slow or fast, Michael Bevan is a very good batsman.
``He's just got to find his niche in the game.''
Bevan was under media pressure to hold his number six spot going into the Test, but selectors included him in a 13-man squad for the second Test in Sydney which starts Friday.
``It's been a tough Test and it's been a tough period. I believe I've done enough not to have received the press and vibes that I'm now getting,'' Bevan said.
``As a player I can't do any more. I've had three good seasons of first-class cricket. I've had a good Indian tour and I went down to Hobart (for Australia XI vs West Indies) and it all started up again, so it's been tough and disappointing and I don't see any reason why that sooner or later it will come.
``I think I'm just one dig away from establishing myself.''
Of his bowling, Bevan said: ``I hadn't bowled for a while and I wasn't too sure how they would come out not having bowled for a number of months, and it's probably the best they've come out in a while... it was just one of those days.''
