LONDON:
England, chasing 278, were rocked by an early double strike from Tait as they collapsed to 19 for two and their innings never really recovered despite Paul Collingwood's gutsy 95.
Man-of-the-match Tait finished with figures of four wickets for 48 runs from 8.3 overs, ending the match with 21 balls to spare when Graeme Swann holed out to mid-off as England finished on 235 all out.
England were in danger of a humiliating loss at 73 for five before Collingwood shared a stand of 56 with Luke Wright.
