Brendon McCullum, Mark Waugh & Michael Vaughan engage in Twitter war over the best side

Former England skipper, who bid adieu to the game back in 2009, has been trying hard to make an impact on social media for quite a while now. On most of the occasions, he gets trolled for his comments, but there are instances when he is appreciated as well. Recently, after Australia registered a dominating 2-0 victory against Pakistan at home, Vaughan took to Twitter, to warn the Aussie side about a team that could probably give them a tough time at their home soil. Only 1 Team in the World can compete in Aussie conditions against this Australian Team .. that’s #India .. No other team has the tools imo .. #AUSvNZ @FoxCricket — Michael Vaughan (@MichaelVaughan) December 14, 2019 'Time will tell I guess' The English opener had named India as the side that could be troublesome for Australia. Soon after his comments, former New Zealand captain Brendon McCullum could not resist responding as he defended the Kiwis and said that it was too early to say so and with Trent Boult coming back to a side would be a huge benefit for New Zealand. The Blackcaps are currently touring Australia with the first Test being underway at Perth currently. McCullum added that Australia is likely to win the first Test but the contest will still remain open with New Zealand giving a string fight. Former Australia all-rounder Mark Waugh also responded to McCullum's comments as he stated that lack of spinners is a concern for the Blackcaps. McCullum then retaliated to Waugh's comments by saying that with wins against Sri Lanka and Pakistan, the spinners have served the side well over the past 32 months.
