Archie Matthew Vaughan (born 9 December 2005) is an English cricketer who plays for Somerset and the England national under-19 cricket team. He is a right handed batsman and right arm off spin bowler.[1] He made his List A cricket debut on 26 July 2024 in the One-Day Cup against Kent. He is the son of former England Test captain Michael Vaughan.

Early and personal life

Born in Sheffield, Vaughan and his sister Tallula are the children of Nichola and Michael Vaughan.[2] He was educated at Millfield where he captained the first-XI cricket team.[3] He played for Baslow CC in Derbyshire before moving on to play for Alderley Edge. He also played age-group cricket for Cheshire.[4]

Career

He played for Somerset County Cricket Club at under-15 through to under-18 level, prior to signing for the Somerset Cricket Academy.[5][6] In April 2024, he opened the batting for Somerset second-XI alongside Jack Leach against Yorkshire second-XI at Headingley, scoring 61 runs.[7] In May 2024, he signed a two and-a-half year professional contract with Somerset.[8][9][10][11]

He played for a Young Lions Invitational XI against England U19 at Loughborough in June 2024 and, whilst bowling, took the wicket of Rocky Flintoff, son of his father's former England teammate Andrew.[12] The following week, Vaughan was called-up to the England national under-19 cricket team.[13][14][15][16]

Vaughan made his List A debut for Somerset against Kent at Taunton on 26 July 2024 in the One-Day Cup, but took no wickets and was run out without facing a ball.[17][18][19] He made his first-class debut in that year's County Championship, for Somerset against Durham at Taunton on 29 August,[20] and took his maiden first-class wicket the following day with only his sixth delivery.[21][22]

In just his second first-class appearance on 9–12 September 2024, Vaughan proved the "match-winner" as Somerset "pulled off one of the greatest County Championship victories in their history" by defeating Championship leaders and reigning champions Surrey.[23] Having taken his maiden five-wicket haul in their first innings, he added another five wickets in their second to complete a ten-wicket haul and finish with match figures of 11/140.[23][24]
