Shaun Tait steps down as Bangladesh's fast-bowling coach
Shaun Tait has stepped down as Bangladesh's fast-bowling coach, bringing an end to a 12-month tenure. Tait, joining Bangladesh last year in May, had taken over from former New Zealand all-rounder Andre Adams. According to reports, Tait has cited family-related reasons. His departure comes despite having a contract that was originally scheduled to run until the 2027 ICC Cricket World Cup.
"My 12 months with the BCB and the Bangladesh national team was fulfilling. I want to thank the BCB. I really enjoyed working with the players. I have a great relationship with the fast bowling group. They were good to work with and I created some really good relationships in Bangladesh, around the cricketing community in general,” Tait told ESPNcricinfo.
"I don't think that'll be the closed door on my time in the country. There's obviously BPL and what not. You never know what the future holds. But for the time being, my young family need a bit more of my time. So, the full-time role of year-round red and white-ball cricket, my 12 months was enough and it's time to just step back and give my family a little bit more time,” he added.
During his tenure, he worked closely with the country's emerging pace attack. Under his leadership, Bangladesh also registered a 2-0 series win against Pakistan.
