Good captain and batsman for England, will always be remembered for playing a huge part in the 2005 Ashes success. However, as Yorkshire fans will testify, he lost the taste for cricket after being dropped from England and subsequently put in some half-arsed efforts at county level.

Decided to give up two weeks ago after being bowled by his son in the back garden.

In fairness, he played a few county games when well below full fitness. His knee's been fcuked for the last three years.

But I'm sure he'll still have a career of some sort in the game.

Fabulous captain, turned England into a real Test force, and an excellent top-order batsman, who the Australians didn't like bowling to (look at his record in the 2002 Ashes down under).

He'd be a good batting coach.

[Uncle Albert]

Fantastic skipper but batting? He was a good batsmen not a great, fantastic, wonderful batter. At test level he hit a decent number of hundreds but was never able to go on to a massive score but like Corky his record in the 2002 Ashes was very impressive. Vaughan never managed a hundred in ODI cricket. Taking nothing away from the man because tactical brain is the best I have seen at cricket.

Had a brilliant cover drive on him, really hope he can go on to further his career in cricket with a good coaching role at Yorkshire or England.

[Fosse Boy]

A great player in his prime, but to be fair I doubt he was ever likely to get Test recognition again. Better to start a media career (or hopefully a coaching career) than waste away into relative obscurity on the county circuit.
