‘India is the lowest in the world…’, Vaughan took a dig at Team India after the crushing defeat in Centurion.

Vaughan described India as a low achieving team Team India and Michael Vaughan. (Image Source: Getty Images) Michael Vaughan is always in the news for his statements. Now, after India’s defeat in the Centurion Test at the hands of South Africa, he has again let down Team India by commenting. Commenting, the former England captain has called India a low achieving team. Actually, South Africa defeated Rohit Sharma and Company by an innings and 32 runs due to the excellent performance of the bowlers in the Centurion Test. With this victory, the host team took a 1-0 lead in the two-match Test series. After the shameful defeat in Centurion, India’s dream of winning the Test series in South Africa was also shattered. After the match, Michael Vaughan on Fox Sports said that Team India has plenty of resources, yet it has failed to achieve big achievements. Vaughan again let India down Vaughan asked former Australian cricketer Mark Waugh, ‘Do you think that in terms of cricket, India is one of the least achieving teams in the world?’ The Australian veteran asked the same question to Vaughan to which he said, he has not won much in recent times. I think they are an underachieving side. Continuing his talk, Michael Vaughan said, they won the Test series in Australia twice (2018/19 and 2020/21). Brilliant, but could not win the last few World Cups and T20 World Cups. They are a good team, they have a lot of talent, but with the amount of talent they have and the resources they have, I don’t think they will win. Let us tell you that in November 2022, when India lost by 10 wickets in the T20 World Cup semi-final against England, Vaughan had called the Men in Blue “underachievers” for the first time. Before the Centurion Test, India had lost in the World Cup 2023 final. Before that, Australia had lost in the World Test Championship final in June. read this also- Ruckus over Mohammad Rizwan’s controversial out, this viral picture created a stir

SA v IND: African bowlers got more help than Indian bowlers – former cricketer told the main reason for the defeat

In the Centurion Test, India lost by an innings and 32 runs. RSA v IND (Photo Source: Getty Images) Former Team India cricketer Aakash Chopra believes that the South African fast bowlers got more help from the Centurion pitch than the Indian bowlers. Explaining the reason behind this, he said that African bowlers are taller than Indian bowlers due to which they got more help and bounce from the pitch. The African team defeated the visiting team by an innings and 32 runs on the third day of the first Test in Centurion on Thursday, 28 December. They bowled out Rohit Sharma and company for 245 and 131 runs in their two innings. On the other hand, Indian bowlers were seen struggling against the African batsmen and due to this South Africa scored a huge score of 408 runs. Aakash Chopra gave a big statement after losing the test match against South Africa Reviewing the match in a video shared on his YouTube channel, Chopra claimed that the relatively short Indian bowlers could not take advantage of the conditions. He said, “There was a lot of help (for the bowlers) on this Centurion pitch. Some balls went up, the way Dean Elgar got out on the ball of Shardul Thakur or the way Yashasvi Jaiswal got out on the ball of Nandre Berger.” The former Indian opener further said, “Since their fast bowlers are tall, they take full advantage of the conditions, which our bowlers are not able to do. Our bowlers are a little weak. He is not as tall and does not get as much help from the pitch. Which benefits the opposing team.” Let us tell you that, Jasprit Bumrah (4/69) and Mohammed Siraj (2/91), these were the two bowlers who put pressure on the African batsmen to some extent. Whereas Shardul Thakur and Prasidh Krishna together took only two wickets and gave a total of 194 runs in 39 overs. Also read: ACB announces 18-man squad for T20I series against UAE
