Former India cricketer Wasim Jaffer frequently indulges in social media banter with former England captain Michael Vaughan. The two often troll each other on Twitter for some issue or the other. Recently, Michael Vaughan trolled the former India cricketer on his reappointment as the Punjab Kings batting coach for the 2023 Indian Premier League season. Jaffer has come up with a hilarious response to Vaughan’s tweet.
Trolling Wasim Jaffer after his appointment as the Punjab Kings batting coach, he tweeted, “Someone who got out to me is a batting coach !!!!!!!!!!!!.” Vaughan had dismissed Jaffer during the 2022 Lord’s test match. In the fourth innings, the Indian batter edged a ball to Nasser Hussain at slips, handing Michael Vaughan a Test wicket.
Reacting to Michael Vaughan’s tweet, Wasim Jaffer shared a popular Burnol meme.
