Having lost out on a place in the pre-Ashes squad, Michael Vaughan is expected to announce his retirement from international cricket next week, according to reports in the English media. In January, Vaughan withdrew from the IPL auction to concentrate on getting back into the Test side in time for the Ashes.
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.
