Michael Vaughan to advise Yorkshire

The former Yorkshire and England captain, who retired from cricket last summer, will assist the club with the recruitment of players, particularly those from overseas.

He will also act as a mentor to Yorkshire's new captain Andrew Gale, who has also worn the armband for the England Lions this winter.

Yorkshire will also utilise Michael's experience and knowledge as required.

Martyn Moxon, Yorkshire director of professional cricket, said: "I'm delighted that Michael has agreed to continue to work with us. I am very keen to utilise his extensive experience to help us to develop our exciting young talent."
