Michael Vaughan plagued by bad luck

Vaughan unlucky streak continues. After a couple of decent games, where he looked confidant, he's now done in by a hamstring tear. In hindsight, the English selectors should not have been so eager to bring him back into the thick of things, without achieving a 100% fitness. Whether this latest injury is due to his overall lack of fitness or just a freak accident is debatable. But by risking to play him without significant first class games or a completely clean bill of health, the English selectors may have compromised his career.

I also think its quite unfair, especially to those who are actually scoring runs back in England, to bring in a fellow, who hasn't played much cricket at all, and make him captain once again. Its unprofessional and the state of England's international squad needs a revival fast. The world cup is around the corner. Though one might argue, a sound thrashing by even the minnows of cricket, in that tournament would be a sufficient wake up call.
