Ex-England skipper Vaughan wants no SOS from the Caribbean

London, Feb. 13 : Former England cricket captain Michael Vaughan has told the England and Wales Cricket Board (ECB) that they must not send him an SOS from the Caribbean.

He told SunSport: "I don't believe in SOS calls. If there are injuries, they have to select someone and if that is me, then great.

"But I'm a firm believer that you pick a squad for a tour, and then you stick by those men to get the job done. I know the characters in the dressing room and I know they'll be hurting badly from what happened last weekend. The one thing that is good for England is there is a quick turnaround. We start another Test now and know we can instantly put it right," he added.
