“Should have won more white-ball trophies”: Michael Vaughan takes dig at Indian trio

Former England captain, Michael Vaughan has taken a sly dig at Indian trio of Virat Kohli, Ravindra Jadeja and Rohit Sharma for not winning more white-ball trophies as they retired from the T20Is. The trio was an integral part of Indian cricket for many years, but managed to win just one ICC trophy (T20 World Cup 2024) for India in the past decade, and that too came in their last T20I match.
The three giants of Indian cricket decided to pass the baton to the young guns after helping the Men in Blue win their second T20 World Cup title.
Vaughan didn’t mince his words while pointing out the shortcomings of the Indian team in recent ICC tournaments.
“They’ll all agree that it is a perfect way to go, but they should have won more white ball trophies amongst them. To think that he (Rohit) has taken another seventeen years to get another one in his hand, I think he will be the first one to admit that they should have won one or two more,” Vaughan said.
However, the former English captain feels that the trio retired at the right time, and now they can focus on the other two formats and IPL.

“What a way to go out with a win in Barbados and a trophy in your hand. Now they can sit back and play Test cricket, a bit of one-day cricket and in the IPL like MS Dhoni, play on forever. In Indian cricket, they will be replaced as there’s plenty of talent in that team,” he added.
