Michael Vaughan statement in full as ex-England skipper declares there are "no winners"

Former England Test captain Michael Vaughan has said "there are no winners" after the ECB's Cricket Discipline Commission cleared him of using racist language in 2009.

Vaughan was among those charged with verbally abusing some of his former Yorkshire team-mates during that period. It was alleged the Eccles native had told Azeem Rafiq, Adil Rashid, Ajmal Shahzad and Rana Naved-ul-Hasan: "There's too many of you lot, we need to have a word about that."

A CDC panel found each of Tim Bresnan, John Blain, Andrew Gale, Matthew Hoggard and Richard Pyrah were liable for breaching ECB Directive 3.3, which relates to bringing the game into disrepute. However, Vaughan was found not guilty of the same charge.
