Retired best World XI in T20Is

#9 Shaun Tait

Shaun Tait could never reach his full potential

The former Australian pacer, Shaun Tait had all the chances to be one of the most fearsome bowlers of his generation. But, he could not make an impact due to regular injuries. However, he used to trouble the batsmen with his pace and toe-crushing yorkers.

He decided to quit Tests in 2009 and ODIs in 2011 to keep himself fit for the shortest format of the game. Tait has played a major role with every team he has represented since his debut.

Tait has played 21 games and picked up 28 wickets at an economy of around 7 in the T20 Internationals. He has an average of 21.04 with the best bowling figure of 3 for 13 in T20Is. His last T20I game was against India during the T20 World Cup in 2016 and announced his retirement in 2017.
