Michael Vaughan resigns as England cricket captain by sweet east pearl

Michael Vaughan is England's most successful captain - he won 26 of his 51 matches in charge - had to break off his announcement on more than one occasion as he held back the tears following his decision to quit the job after five years in charge.

The 33-year-old's announcement came at a hastily arranged press conference in Loughborough less than 24 hours after he said he would "let the dust settle" on his team's defeat.

Vaughan has struggled with the bat in recent seasons, but England supporters will always remember him as the man who led the team to their first Ashes series win for 20 years in 2005.
