Vaughan steps down as capt Proteas graduate to greatness Smith is 'Captain Colossus'

Johannesburg - On Sunday Graeme Smith paid tribute to outgoing England Test captain Michael Vaughan, describing his decision as a "loss for world cricket".

"It has come as a shock to me," commented Smith. "I have the highest regard for him as person, sportsman and leader. It is a great loss for world cricket."

The Proteas management also announced on Sunday that fast bowler Dale Steyn's left thumb will be left in a cast for another week. He will thus not be considered for selection for Thursday's final Test match at the Brit Oval.

He is, however, on track to take part in the limited overs segment of the tour, consisting of a T20 International and five One-Day Internationals.
