England beat West Indies

Michael Vaughan has become England's most successful cricket captain ever after his men beat the West Indies by 60 runs in the third Test at Old Trafford.Vaughan has moved ahead of Peter May after savouring his 21st victory as England skipper as he and his team-mates celebrated only their second Test series triumph since their 2005 Ashes success.Shivnarine Chanderpaul (116 not out) did his best to help the tourists achieve their target of 455 to level the series but ultimately ran out of partners as man-of-the-match Monty Panesar finished with match figures of 10-187.Panesar took the wicket of Denesh Ramdin (34) with just ten runs added to the Windies' overnight score of 301-5 before catching and bowling Darren Sammy (25) to seal his fifth five-wicket Test haul.Steve Harmison, who finished the second innings with figures of 4-95 with the ball, claimed his 200th Test scalp when Jermome Taylor (11) was caught by Alastair Cook before dismissing Fidel Edwards (0) in the same over.And Northamptonshire left-arm spinner Panesar rounded off the Windies' innings when Corey Collymore (0) was out to a stunning catch at short-leg by Ian Bell which confirmed England's 300th Test win.The Windies were all out for 394 and Vaughan was delighted to emerge from a difficult week in a blaze of glory after his criticism of Andrew Flintoff in a newspaper interview.Vaughan said after his men opened up an unassailable 2-0 lead in the four-match series: "I was embarrassed on Thursday as I did say I hadn't said something and it was proved that I had."But we've seen a great wicket this week and it's been a great week for Test cricket. (The win) was special because we won the series today and it's great to pass so many legends of the game (with 21 wins)."I'm very proud of the team as the West Indies asked us a lot of questions in this game."Panesar, who claimed ten wickets in a Test for the first time, was delighted with England's efforts, adding: "I've had success on this pitch and I'm delighted to get my first 10 wickets for England, but more to contribute to a win."Meanwhile, Matthew Hoggard looks likely to return to the England side for the fourth Test at Chester-le-Street after overcoming a groin injury.The Yorkshire seamer has been included in England's 12-man squad at the expense of Liam Plunkett meaning that James Anderson is expected to once again miss out.Chairman of selectors David Graveney, said: "Matthew has been bowling pain-free for the last few days and he will play for Yorkshire against Northamptonshire in the Friends Provident Trophy on Wednesday."The next step for him then will be to bowl in the nets at Chester-le-Street on Thursday and show that he is available for selection. If he is fully fit, he will replace Liam Plunkett in our starting line-up for the next Test."James Anderson will be our standby seam bowler and he will also play for his county, Lancashire, in their Friends Provident Trophy match against Nottinghamshire on Wednesday."The England squad for the fourth Test reads:M Vaughan (Yorkshire, capt), J Anderson (Lancashire), I Bell (Warwickshire), P Collingwood (Durham), A Cook (Essex), S Harmison (Durham), M Hoggard (Yorkshire), K Pietersen (Hampshire), M Prior (Sussex), M Panesar (Northamptonshire), R Sidebottom (Nottinghamshire), A Strauss (Middlesex).© Independent Television News Limited 2007.
