Michael Vaughan makes Ben Hollioake plea

Former England cricket captain Michael Vaughan has made a plea to catch the "idiots" who stole kit of the late Ben Hollioake.

Hollioake, who was killed in a car crash at the age of 24 in 2002, recently had a number of items taken from his parents' house in Perth, Australia.

"Please help find the idiots who have broken into @adamhollioake parents' house and stole Ben's England possessions," Vaughan tweeted.

Police have since confirmed that some of the possessions have been recovered.

Hollioake won two Test caps and made 20 one-day international appearances for England before his death.
