Former England captain Michael Vaughan has hailed Sussex after they announced the signing of Australia star Steve Smith for three County Championship matches ahead of the Ashes.
Vaughan praised the move as a "great signing for our game", despite current England skipper Ben Stokes admitting he would "prefer" Australian players "not to get any game time out here before the Ashes".
Smith's short stint with Sussex will be his first time playing in the County Championship and Vaughan believes he will have a positive impact on a side full of promising but inexperienced cricketers.
