Alastair Cook 'honoured' to receive an MBE for his services in England's memorable Ashes victory over Australia this year.

England batsman Alastair Cook was awarded an MBE by the Queen yesterday following his impressive performance against Australia in the Ashes series this year.

The 26-year-old played an integral part in claiming the famous series against England's Aussie rivals, racking up 766 runs throughout the four Test matches.

"It's been a fantastic couple of years for the England cricket team and for me to be here and get the MBE is an honour - I feel very humble to be given it," said Cook.

"We've achieved some fantastic things - the aim now is to try and continue that success."

The cricketer was presented with his MBE in the inauguration ceremony at Buckingham Palace.
