London, June 21: Former England captain Michael Vaughan is set to discover on Monday if he is in line for a Test recall against Australia when the selectors name an extended squad for an Ashes training camp. Vaughan has not played for England since resigning as captain following last year’s third Test against South Africa at Edgbaston, although he has often stressed how he he wants to play in the upcoming Ashes.

England are due to announce Monday a 16-man squad for an Ashes training camp and the three-day warm-up match against Warwickshire. Those players selected can expect to be in contention for the Ashes which starts with the first Test in Cardiff starting on July 8.

Durham’s Steve Harmison has been overlooked so far this season after England lost patience with the erratic pace bowler during their tour of the Caribbean earlier this year.

Instead it was pacer Graham Onions who was given his chance during their lopsided early season Test series win at home to the West Indies. —AFP
