Former Australia fast bowler Shaun Tait has shared the reason behind modern-day pacers’ inability to bowl over 150 kmph consistently. Tait said that today’s fast bowlers don’t have their inputs in ‘robot-like’ training programs. He reckoned that current bowlers are ‘spoon-fed’ concerning the ‘Dos and Donts’ by their team physios.

Tait, who played 59 international games for Australia, used to bowl over 150 kmph on a constant basis. He even clicked the 160 kmph mark in his career. The 38-year-old mentioned that speedsters like him, Shoaib Akhtar and Brett Lee, coul?d cross the 150kmph barrier because they had their say in ?their training schedule.

“I can talk about this for an hour… I think anywhere you go right now; bowling programs are very similar, workload, programs, you have to do this, you have to do that. Whereas when I played, before that Shoaib and Brett Lee, our programs were there, but we had a big input into them. We were not faced with almost like a robot-type thing. You are not doing the same thing, day in, day out. You are not being told by people what to do all the time. You are taking a bit of onus on your career and doing what feels good for your body,” Tait told Sportskeeda.

The South Australian enlightened ??that a lot of professionalism is hurting bowlers in current times. Tait expressed th?at bowlers should be allowed to make at least some decisions regarding their workload on their own.

“Nowadays they are told ‘Now, have a rest day’, ‘Bowl a certain amount of balls this day. Obviously, the professionalism of cricket has come into it; a lot of guys have got jobs to look after programs for fast bowlers. I think it’s hurting express bowling a little bit. Sometimes I think we should let cricketers make their decisions themselves rather than telling them what to do and spoon-feeding them,” added Tait.

Former Australia speedster Shaun Tait was quite popular for? his electrifying pace and incredible ability to bowl consistently above 150 kmph. His career met with injuries at regular intervals, and because of that, he failed to cement his place in the Aussi??e team.

Tait, who was a member of the 2007 World Cup-winning side, represented Australia in 3 Tests, 35 ODIs and 21 T20Is, picking up 5, 62 and 28 wickets, respectively. Tait played with and against one of the best players, especially in the 50-over format. And recently, the South Australian cricketer revealed his all-time ODI XI in a chat with Sportskeeda.

Starting with the openers, Tait picked the likes of Adam Gilchrist and Virender Sehwag. The 38-year-old said that he picked the explosive batters becaus?e of their aggressiveness at the to?p order.

“I am going to go with Adam Gilchrist and (Virender) Sehwag. I like aggressiveness at the top of the order,” said Tait.

Tait went with a strong middle-order selecting legendary batters like Ricky Ponting, Sachin Tendulkar and Brian Lara. While Tendulkar (18.426) and Ponting (13,704) are the highest run-getters for? their respective nations. Lara (10,405) is the second-highest run-scorer for West Indies.

For number six, Tait named Indian superstar Virat Kohli; however, he was a bit unsure of selecting Kohli for this position as the Delhi-lad is a top-order batsman. For number seven, the Adelaide-born went with former India skipper MS Dhoni. Both Kohli (12,169) ?and Dhoni (10,773) belong to the elite list of batters who have scored more than 10,000 runs in ODI cricket.

“Batting at No. 3, I’ll have to go with Ricky Ponting. No. 4 would be Sachin Tendulkar, and No. 5 is Brian Lara. Can Virat Kohli bat at No. 6? Is that fine? I am going to squeeze in MS Dhoni at No. 7,” added Tait.

In the bowling department, the former Afghanistan coach picked three pacers and a spinner in the form of Wasim Akram, Glenn McGrath, Shoaib Akhtar and Shane Warne. Akram (502) is?? the second-highest wicket-taker of all time in ODIS, whereas McGrath (381) is the leading wicket-taker for Australians. On the other hand, Warne took 393 scalps while Akhtar bagged 247 wickets in ODI cricket.

Here is Shaun Tait’s all-time ODI XI:

Virender Sehwag, Adam Gilchrist, Ricky Ponting, Sachin Tendulkar, Brain Lara, Virat Ko??hli, MS Dhoni, Shane Warne, Wasim Akram, Glenn McGrath, Shoaib Akhtar.
