Swann denies accusing England players

Former England spinner Graeme Swann says he was not referring to anyone in the current squad when he said certain players are "up their own backsides". The 34-year-old, who announced his retirement from cricket on Sunday, did not name specific players when he used the description. But he later contacted former captain Michael Vaughan to deny he was referring to England players. He tweeted: "I wasn't talking about the England dressing room or anyone in it." Swann has nev been frightened to speak his mind about cricket. Please turn on JavaScript. Media requires JavaScript to play. //
