#1 Shaun “Wild Thing” Tait has a night to forget
Shaun Tait, nicknamed “Wild Thing”, came on to bowl in the 4th over of the innings and started off by conceding fours off his first 2 deliveries. Another four hit by Vince off the 5th ball meant the over went for 14 in all. A poor start, but a bowler can always come back after one bad over, can’t he?
But no, it wasn’t meant to be for Tait. Coming back to bowl again in the 11th over with the Thunder still needing 80 and Watson and Rohrer new to the crease, he started the over with a waist high full toss to Watson that was duly called a no-ball, and the free-hit was dispatched to long-on for four.
Things only got worse for Tait from then as Watson tore into him, hitting the last 2 balls of the over for a four and a six to loot 19 off it and put his team well on its way to a win. Tait’s 2 overs cost him 32. Not a night he’d like to remember for long!
