Former Yorkshire cricketer Michael Vaughan to return as BBC pundit for Ireland Test and Ashes series
Former Yorkshire cricketer Michael Vaughan will return to the BBC as a pundit for their coverage of the 2023 Ashes series and England’s Test match against Ireland.
Vaughan stepped back from punditry in June after he was accused of using racist language towards former colleague Azeem Rafiq during their time together at Yorkshire.
He denied the allegation and a Cricket Discipline Commission panel found a charge that Vaughan had used racist or discriminatory language towards a group of players of Asian ethnicity before a match for Yorkshire in 2009 not proven.
