Former England skipper Michael Vaughan has taken a dig at Team India after they won the second T20I against England at the Narendra Modi Stadium on Sunday night. Virat Kohli scored an unbeaten 73 and with Ishan Kishan forged a match-winning partnership of 91 for the second wicket. Vaughan had earlier said that Mumbai Indians was a better T20 team than Team India after England beat India in the first game.
Meanwhile, after India won the second T20I, Michael Vaughan took another dig at Team India saying that the Mumbai Indians players was the key reason behind India winning the match. Ishan Kishan and Suryakumar Yadav, both of who play for Mumbai Indians made their debut in the same match. While Suryakumar did not get his opportunity to bat, Kishan scored a match-winning 56 to help India win the game.
The BCCI posted a video of Virat Kohli presenting the India cap to Ishan Kishan, while Ravi Shastri presenting it to Suryakumar, who even waved it to his teammates’ appreciation. Both the youngsters have consistently scored in the IPL and domestic cricket in the last two to three seasons and deservedly made it to the playing XI.
