Malinga vs Tait for T20

Both have slingy action and both bowl at good pace, certainly Shaun Tait bowls faster....but still would like to know who you think is a better bowler for T20 format.

Slinga Malinga easily.

Tait can be a handful on helpful wickets but Malinga is good on all surfaces.

Malinga is 50 times better than Tait.

If you look at their records Malinga absolutely kills Tait.

Malinga because he's much more consistent than Tait.

Malinga is relentless in hitting the block hole. Him missing it is a big event.

If you want someone to bowl fast, accurate, good yorkers and slower balls, get top-class batters out, be economical, consistent and have awesome hair, Malinga.

If you want someone killed, Tait.

Tait' record is better in every respect (ave, strike rate economy etc) so I can only assume that people are voting on the basis of hair-styles
