Ashes 2021-2022: Former captains Vaughan and Botham 'embarrassed' by England's abject surrender

Former England captains Michael Vaughan and Ian Botham felt "embarrassed" by England's approach and attitude towards the game in the ongoing Ashes after Australia took away the Ashes series in the third Test on Tuesday. "It's not easy in these times, the England side didn't have a great preparation but if you want to look for excuses, you can," Vaughan, who had led England to the Ashes win 2005, told Fox Cricket. "I would say with the group that I've seen and the way they're playing, I'd be amazed if don't beat England in English conditions in 2023." The 47-year-old Vaughan, who captained England to 26 wins in 51 Tests, said the English system doesn't allow "young players to develop and give themselves a chance of playing at this level."
