Let us tell you that this time this tournament is going to start from June 2 to be hosted by West Indies and USA. So, Cricket South Africa has recently announced its 15-member team for this multinational tournament. However, after the announcement of the team by the board, it is facing strong criticism. So the main reason behind this is to select only one player from the Black African community in the team. It is noteworthy that only Kagiso Rabada from the Black African community has got a place in the South African team. However, Lungi Ngidi from this community has got a place in the team as a reserve player, but he is not a part of the 15-member team. Strong criticism of South African team Let us tell you that after Cricket South Africa announced the team for the upcoming T20 World Cup, former South African Sports Minister Fikile Mbalula wrote through a post on his official X account – In the Proteas team for the upcoming T20 World Cup 2024 team. The selection of only 1 African player is certainly a reservation of the benefits of the change and does not reflect a fair representation of all South Africans in the national cricket team. Also on this issue, former Chief of Cricket South Africa Ray Mali said- I believe that the team has achieved a lot, but I also believe that we have gone backward in terms of cricket. Instead of moving forward, we have taken a step backward.

Those that follow me know that is not my way. So please pay those accounts no attention. — Ian Raphael Bishop (@irbishi) May 4, 2024 Even in the Indian Premier League 2024, many such rumors were spread about the players which many people accepted as true.

Michael Vaughan strongly criticized RCB, said – no one wins trophies by including big players
The fact is that RCB has not won a single trophy till now – Michael Vaughan Michael Vaughan and RCB. (Image Source: Getty Images/X) Royal Challengers Bangalore (RCB) is one of the most popular teams and fans have been loyal to them since 2008. There have always been big stars in his team. But despite this, RCB has not won a single trophy yet. Under the leadership of Anil Kumble (2009), Daniel Vettori (2011), and Virat Kohli (2016), the team reached the finals thrice, but fell short of the title. Even in IPL 2024, RCB has been disappointed so far. The team has played 6 matches and has won only one match, while it has faced defeat in five matches. Meanwhile, before the match against Sunrisers Hyderabad, former English cricketer Michael Vaughan has taken on RCB and criticized the team fiercely. He has not won a single title – Michael Vaughan He said in The Ranveer Show on YouTube with Ranveer Allahabadia that the fact is that RCB has not won a single trophy so far. He said that cricket is a team game. The game is never won by individual performance. “I like the fact that RCB has never won, it proves that team sport is not just about individuals,” Vaughan said on The Ranveer Show. You can buy all the big names and include them in a team, but that does not mean you are going to win and this has been proved in RCB. Michael Vaughan further said, I did not see him doing anything different. I just see them thinking it’s probably wrong but again that’s the perception. They just think because they have big players in this team. Management thinks we’re going to win. This proves to me that even if you have great players, unless you get team ethics, culture and you fully recognize everyone’s role, you will not be able to win titles.
