T20 World Cup 2024: Former India star slams Michael Vaughan for his remark on ‘venue conspiracy’

India defeated England by 68 runs in the second semi-final of the ongoing T20 World Cup 2024. In the process, the Men in Blue broke their 10-year drought of reaching the T20 World Cup final. 

India’s thumping victory sent a wave of jubilation from several India fans all across the globe. However, former England captain Michael Vaughan triggered a conspiracy theory, suggesting Guyana was an excellent ground for the Indian team, hence the result. 

In response, former Indian star off-spinner Harbhajan Singh was in no mood to sit back and digest Vaughan’s verdict.

“If England had beaten SA they would have got the Trinidad semi and I believe they would have won that game. So no complaints they haven’t been good enough. But Guyana has been a lovely venue pick for India,” Vaughan had posted on X (earlier known as Twitter).

In response, Harbhajan wrote, “What makes u think Guyana was a good venue for India? Both Teams played on the same venue. England won the toss that was an advantage. Stop being silly. England was outplayed by India in all departments. Accept the fact and Move on and keep ur rubbish with urself. Talk logic not Nonsense.”
