[Twelfth Man]

Shaun Tait has signed for Essex for this years T20 competition and is available for all games including quarter finals & finals day. Not a bad signing, quite a big name and will attract more people than James Franklin!

I don't think Foster will fancy standing up to the stumps to him though...

[Manormanic]

I bet he'd do it for a dare!

Another 'T20 Specialist' on a gravy train for a few weeks.

I would love to see Fozzie stand up to him...bet he would take a couple as well

[tussy17]

Him and tymal mills opening would be some serious gas!!

not quite as quick as Tait, but didnt he stand up to Napier a few times? sure i saw it on a televised game, and hes fairly sharp on his day

[justnotcricket86]

He was stood up to a pakistani bowler in T20 the other year, can't remember for the life of me who, and took an 80mph odd full toss that went through the batsmen and stumps on the leg side.

Never seen a take like it

[The_Bird]

I'll never forget when foster was stood up to and 80 plus bowler and the ball nutmegged the batsman, Foster took it miles down the leg side and then stumped the batsman instantaneously. It was incredible, think he had a good one against India a few years back as well Yuvraj was the batsman I think.

[justnotcricket86]

I have been trying to find footage of his 2 stumpings for England, Yuvraj being one of them but cant find them anywhere!!

[cricketbadger]

the guys ability with the gloves is unreal

[justnotcricket86]

I've only gone and bloody found it
