Former England captain Michael Vaughan has said he was wrong to demand that Alastair Cook be replaced as skipper of the national side after the hosts lost the Lord's Test to India by 95 runs.
Participating in BBC Radio 5 live's the Tuffers and Vaughan Cricket Show, Vaughan admitted that he had called for Cook to be replaced by Eoin Morgan after defeat by India, but now acknowledged he was wrong to do so following England's back-to-back Test wins against India under Cook's leadership.
He said that he was truly appreciative of the selectors' move to go ahead with their "fantastic decision" to retain the 29-year-old.
Vaughan had earlier said that a break would've done a world of good for Cook, but following the wins at Southampton and Old Trafford, it was now established that Cook was a strong character and believed he was the man to carry the young England team forward.
England currently leads the five match series 2-1, and will take on India in the final Test at the Oval from August 17.
