Tait quits cricket
SYDNEY, Jan 29: Australian fast bowler Shaun Tait on Tuesday quit all levels of cricket due to physical and emotional exhaustion.
Tait, 24, has struggled with injury since shortly after being named to the Australian Test eleven midway through its unsuccessful Ashes tour of England in 2005.
He has played only three Tests, the last being against India in Perth this month during which he took no wickets.
Tait said it had been a difficult decision to take a break.
“This is not an overnight decision but something that I’ve been struggling with for sometime,” he said. “A break from professional cricket will hopefully give me a clear mind and a chance for my body to rest and recover.—AFP
