Michael Vaughan interview.

Vaughan at the press conference.

RP: Well Michael, do you feel confident with your sides ability to win this series?
MV: Yes, we think that we should win this series quite easily. Sri Lanka and the West Indies should be quite beatable, yet India will be a challenge.
RP: Does it make you feel that winning will be easier with Laxman out of India's team?
MV: Definetely. Laxman is a class batsman and hopefully him being out will impact on other Indian players.
RP: Well thanks for that Michael. Good Luck.
MV: No problem.
