Former Australian fast bowler Shaun Tait was on Monday appointed the bowling coach of Afghanistan with immediate effect. The Afghanistan Cricket Board (ACB) made the announcement ahead of the ODI series against Pakistan in Hambantota, Sri Lanka next month.

It will be the first time that Tait will be in a coaching position in international cricket. Tait represented Australia in all three formats of the game from 2004 to 2016.
Nicknamed "The Wild Thing", Tait was considered to be one of the fastest bowlers in the world. He bowled the second-fastest delivery in ODIs at a speed of 161.1 kph against England in 2010.
