Michael Vaughan to retire per cricinfo ?
Vaughan, 34, who led England to regain the Ashes in 2005, has made only 159 runs at 19.88 for Yorkshire this season. He hasn’t played international cricket since stepping down from captaincy during the home series against South Africa last year. The last time he scored a century in a competitive match was for Yorkshire in a 50-over game against Surrey in
Abu Dhabi this March. He has also struggled with injuries to his knee which had kept him out of cricket for over a year between November 2005 and May 2007.Disecting KKR
Cricinfo obsessed with English cricket
Out of the 11 players highlighted below most of them are domestic English T20 stars yet the English team is a dud in T20s on the global arena.

Wonder why cricinfo.com is so obsessed with English cricket ?
As expectedly every list on cricinfo.com contains most of English cricketers, perhaps they need to understand that English don’t longer rule the world…….Colonial hangover still persists!!
Bangalore Test – Day 1, session 1
So that is lunch on day one of this Test series. It will go Australia’s way because Ponting and Katich have smoothed over the loss of Hayden (who has incorrectly given out) for a duck rather well. It has not always been pretty, but it has been a crucial partnership. Ponting has moved along to 41, his second highest score in India, and Katich has offered solid support with 28. This is a batting pitch, make no mistake. Zaheer Khan and Ishant Sharma bowled well with the new ball but there has been little on offer for India’s spinners. Not a lot of runs in the first session, but a good one to watch.
A session to Australia, but a mental block scored over Hayden by Zaheer Khan who continues his supremacy over lefties…A couple of wkts should do the trick for India. And full marks to Ponting, he is really determined to make amends to his patchy record in India…
