Shaun Tait named Bangladesh’s fast-bowling coach

Former Australian fast bowler Shaun Tait has been appointed as the new fast-bowling coach of Bangladesh. Tait, who will remain the team’s bowling coach until November 2027, will replace Andre Adams, whose contract ended recently. He carries an ample amount of experience, having served as the bowling coach of Pakistan, West Indies and Afghanistan. Commenting on his appointment, Tait said he was excited to work with the new talent.
"It's a good time to be involved with the Bangladesh cricket team right now, a bit of a new era if you like. It's been spoken about many times recently - the young talent with the fast bowlers - which is great. This is international cricket, not a development team, and everyone expects the talent to bring results, which is very much my focus with the fast-bowling group and most importantly, getting more wins for the team,” Tait said.
"To have the opportunity to work with [head coach] Phil Simmons is equally as exciting and I'm looking forward to the journey ahead."
Tait, who has represented Australia in 59 international games across all formats, has claimed 95 wickets.
