Speedster Shaun Tait talks about that ball on this week's ICC Cricket World audio show

On this week's ICC Cricket World audio show Australia fast bowler Shaun Tait talks about the quickest delivery of his career and why he is looking to push the speed gun even further.

The South Australian, who turns 27 on Monday, recently bowled a delivery that was measured at 160.7kph, the quickest every recorded in Australia.

"Everything felt very good and yeah came out well and it was a good night and the ball before was 159 and two balls were left I gave a crack at 160," he says.

Also on this week's show, Afghanistan coach Kabir Khan discussed the joy of leading his side to qualification for the ICC World Twenty20 2010 in the West Indies.

"It's a lot for Afghanistan," he says. "We are a country where cricket has newly arrived and we got about 10,000 people in finals and millions of people watching on TV and people came out on streets to celebrate."

The show can be used in whole or part by radio stations that want cricket content, while the public can also download it straight from the ICC website athttp://www.icc-cricket.com/media_interactive_zone/podcast.php
