#2 Michael Vaughan
Michael Vaughan was a top batsman of his time, who made his debut in 1999 against South Africa. He could bat as an opening batsman and also in the middle order. Besides this, he was a successful English captain who helped his team regain the Ashes in 2005. He led England in 55 Test matches and won 26 of them.
Vaughan played 86 ODI matches and 82 Test matches in which he scored more than 7700 international runs. He was a beautiful timer of the ball with the ability to play big shots.
Vaughan did not play well in the series against South Africa, so he stepped down as the captain. He was not picked up for the West Indies tour due to the poor form. Looking at his bleak future, he decided to hang his boots on June 30, 2009. Vaughan said, "I have not played well enough. I haven't had the rhythm or form to be picked for an Ashes squad. I don't think it would have been the right decision to put me in."
The ECB should have given him a chance to celebrate his last international match with his fans and teammates.
