Former India opener Wasim insulted former England captain Michael Vaughan in a humorous way. This occurred following India’s dominating seven-wicket win over England in their first T20 World Cup 2021 warm-up match on Monday.
With a recent tweet, the cricketer-turned-coach sparked outrage among Twitter users. One of the pleasures of the game, he said, was Michael Vaughan’s absence on social media during the match.
Therefore, KL Rahul and Ishan Kishan’s fireworks at the top were also a key takeaway for team India, according to the 43-year-old. The bowling exploits of Jasprit Bumrah, Ravichandran Ashwin, and Mohammed Shami were also exciting.
Wasim Jaffer and Michael Vaughan are noted for entertaining fans with their verbal sparring, especially during India-England matches. Jaffer, on the other hand, made a sneaky dig at Vaughan for remaining silent during their most recent brawl.
Virat Kohli
At the ICC Cricket Academy in Dubai, Virat Kohli won the toss and chose to bowl first. England’s hitters put up a brave fight against India’s fearsome bowling arsenal, scoring a respectable 188 runs.
Jonny Bairstow was removed for 49 by Jasprit Bumrah, missing a well-deserved half-century. With a quick-fire unbeaten 43 off just 20 balls, Moeen Ali helped his team reach an impressive total.
KL Rahul kept up his excellent form with the bat, smashing a half-century to set the tone for the chase. Ishan Kishan took most of his opportunity as well, scoring 70 vital runs at the top of the order.
With seven wickets in hand, India comfortably chased down the goal. A dominating win over England will boost the team’s confidence as they prepare for their Super 12 matches. The Virat Kohli-led team will be in action again on Wednesday when they face Australia in their second warm-up match.
