The Virat Kohli Story- Michael Vaughan is one of the most-talked-about former cricketers these days. The reason for that is his comments about the Indian cricket team. He likes to take digs at the team and the players when something doesn’t go their way. One can call him a very harsh critic and at times an annoying Pundit.
With Team India winning yet again, he could not taunt the hosts. However, Virat Kohli was off the field at that time and Michael Vaughan decided to take a dig at him. A second Tweet was sent out by him, talking about the franchises the players belong to.
He sent out these Tweets-
Great captaincy from Virat … !! Allowing @ImRo45 to get involved & clearly his tactics work … #INDvENG

What Was The Response Of Wasim Jaffer To Michael Vaughan’s Tweets About Virat Kohli And Rohit Sharma?
The Indian fans were not totally pleased with the Tweet sent out by Michael Vaughan. He was once again sparking the captaincy debate and a rift within the team. That was something that the fans were not liking and could see that clearly. Divide and Rule seemed to be the case once again.
Wasim Jaffer, the batting coach of the Punjab Kings, reacted to the Tweet. He was not at all pleased by the fact that Michael Vaughan was pointing out the IPL franchises, instead of Team India. It was a team effort that helped the home side beat the visitors. Despite that, credit was clearly not being given where it was due.
Here is the Tweet by Wasim Jaffer that also went viral on Twitter; as the fans really talked about it a lot-
When you say your team wasn’t defeated by a national team but by a franchise team, you’re not trolling your opponents, you’re trolling your own team. Night all. #INDvsENG

Well, it seems that the game of digs between the two former players will continue. The fans seemed to be having some fun watching them battle it out online. That is what happens a lot of Social Media platforms like Twitter these days.
What Next For Team India And Team England In This Series; Who Will Win?
As we head into the final game of this five-match T20 series, whichever team can get a win, wins the series. Also, Team England will want to retain its number one spot. On the other hand, Team India will want to push up the rankings and claim that top spot. However, it will not be that easy. Virat Kohli and co. are keen on being on top of the rankings in all formats and a win in the last game works in the right direction for their goal.
To add to that, the T20 World Cup that is coming up needs a lot of attention from the players and management. It will be held in India and can’t be taken lightly. Due to this, all preparations that are being done at present, need to be done keeping that competition in mind. Let’s hope now that Virat Kohli and co. can get the job done in the final match of this series.
