Glamorgan have signed Australian pace bowler Shaun Tait for this season's NatWest T20 Blast.

The 33-year-old, who played for the Hobart Hurricanes in last season's Big Bash League, previously enjoyed a spell with the Welsh county in 2010.

Tait played for Essex in last year's T20 Blast - taking 23 wickets in 14 matches at an average of 19.34.

The fast bowler was also part of the Australia T20 squad that toured India earlier this year and played for Peshawar Zalmi in the Pakistan Super League last month.

"We believe we have a very competitive team and as one of the fastest bowlers in the world Shaun will add a cutting edge to our attack," said Glamorgan chief executive Hugh Morris.

"We are also in negotiations with another overseas player for the first half of the NatWest T20 Blast and hope to make an announcement in the coming weeks."
