Vaughan says it’s time for a hundred
England captain Michael Vaughan has said it is time he got a One-day International (ODI) hundred as his team head into their potentially decisive World Cup clash with Sri Lanka here on Wednesday (today).
The opener has yet to reach three figures in 81 ODIs — an astonishing record for a specialist batsman.
Vaughan, asked if it was time for him to score a hundred, replied: “It certainly is”.
“The two games over the last week I haven’t played well,” said the 32-year-old Yorkshire right-hander, who scored one and six respectively in England’s unimpressive wins over minnows Kenya and Ireland.
“I felt in decent nick in St Lucia, felt in good nick in St Vincent, I feel in good touch in the nets. But that’s irrelevant if you don’t take that out to the middle,” added Vaughan whose highest ODI score of 90 not out was made against Zimbabwe in Bulawayo in December 2004.
