What it must be like to be in Shaun Tait’s head.
Look there is a topless female clown performing in a rodeo.
Is that a dwarf dressed as Hitler?
Spiders licking ants.
And a space ship made out of ice cream.
We are never quite sure what Tait is going to say next, which must be a bit like facing him.
Not two weeks ago he said he wasn’t really thinking about playing tests.
One dayers were more his things.
Then he destroys NSWales with reverse swing in a one dayer, not for the first time, and he wants to play test cricket again.
That is what it is like being Shaun Tait.
When he learnt to ride his bike, his parents asked him what he wanted to do now, he said, “shoot dragons in space”.
There are no dragons in space Shuan, and you aint going to India, even if you and Shane Harwood are the only two Australians who understand reverse swing.
The selectors just aren’t going to do it.
What if they fly you all the way over, and you arrive and decide to become a snake handler.
It’s too risky.
Why don’t you stay at home, and continue your therapy and wickets, and when the Hitler dwarfs and topless female rodeo clowns stop appearing in your brain, we’ll call ya.
It’s Warney all over again! What’s the fascination with bowlers who suck against/in India coming to save us after having lost a single test?Tait vs India: 21 overs, 1 maiden, 0/92That’s the kind of revival we need… though Delhi is probably less suited to Tait than Perth
hmmm, a bit unfair, but probably true. speaking of people not invited to India, Nielson says Roy is definitely not call-up, no matter how bad it gets. “Andrew is going through a welfare issue’?He’s spent all his IPL money?
He blew all the cash on his new lure, The Roy
Shaun Tait v. Sehwag is one for the ages.
Snowtown Shawn is best suited to ODIs and T20 matches and stuffing dole bludgers in barrels. I saw his spell against NSW and it was mostly yorkers and knee high full tosses. Had some of the Blues shitting though as a few were bowled backing away to square leg. Never a good look!
