Tait leads Oz to win
Fast bowler Shaun Tait led Australia to a 42-run win over England in the fifth and final one-day international at Lord’s here as they reduced the hosts’ series-winning margin to 3-2.
England, chasing 278, were rocked by an early double strike from Tait as they collaped to 19/2 and their innings never really recovered despite Paul Collingwood’s gutsy 95 on Saturday.
