“Work hard and seize your moment," Michael Vaughan, the former England captain who wrote his name in the history books by famously leading England to the 2005 Ashes victory, told aspiring cricketers in Dubai on Thursday.

Vaughan will be supporting young cricketers at the newly-launched Mentors Academy in Dubai.


"What I always say to kids, is that you will get an opportunity in life, you will get a moment in life if you work hard," Vaughan, who attended the launch of the Mentors Academy at the GEMS Modern Academy alongside Virender Sehwag, Chaminda Vaas and Nida Dar, told the Khaleej Times.

"If you don't work hard, you won't get that opportunity. In 2005 as a group of players, we had that moment when we had to win. And we grabbed that moment.


“So you get these chances in your life that you have to take. That's what I always tell kids that you always get a moment that can change your life.

“So work hard and never give up on your dreams."
