Regarded as one of the fastest to have ever played, Tait represented Australia in 3 Tests, 54 ODIs and 21 T20Is. He was also the member of Australia’s 2007 World Cup winning squad. Raw pace, a slinging bowling action always meant Tait was vulnerable to injuries. He was forced to quit firs-class cricket at a tender of 25.
