Michael Vaughan tweets: Michael Vaughan has been of the topics of discussion ever since his prediction of Australia whitewashing India in the four match series, which didn’t go according plan. Following that the former England captain also had several things to say about the Chennai and Ahmadabad wickets not being good enough for Test Cricket. Vaughnan is known for riling up cricketing fans and did that once again last night by giving in a tongue in cheek tweet about Virat Kohli and Rohit Sharma.

Michael Vaughan’s controversial take
The 46-year-old made his thoughts clear by stating that it’s the ‘Mumbai Indian’ players who are having a greater impact in the series instead of Team India. He also had another remark in which he mentioned that it was ‘Great captaincy’ on behalf of Kohli to lead the troops in the final five overs.

Wasim Jaffer silences Vaughan
Although most of Michael Vaughan’s tweets are more to do with humor than anything concrete, former Indian opening batsman Wasim Jaffer didn’t take those statements too well. Jaffer responded to Vaughan’s series of tweets by stating that “you’re trolling your own team,” more than anyone else.
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

Interestingly, Wasim Jaffer too is known for his hilarious tweets on match days, which are an acumination of well thought of memes, as well as witty remarks. However, his latest post suggested that he wasn’t taking any of it from Michael Vaughnan.
